Android execute function after pressing "Enter" for EditText
To receive a keyboard event, a View must have focus. To force this use:
edittext.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);edittext.requestFocus();After that continue with the same code in the example:
edittext.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() { public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) { // If the event is a key-down event on the "enter" button if ((event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) && (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) { // Perform action on key press Toast.makeText(HelloFormStuff.this, edittext.getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); return true; } return false; }});
From what I can see, It looks like you have the wrong import.
Try
edittext.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {OR add this import
import android.view.View.OnKeyListener;and Remove this one
import android.content.DialogInterface.OnKeyListener;
Delete the import statement that has DialogInterface, then import the View.OnKeyListener.
