How do I capture SearchView's clear button click?

After trying a lot of combinations, I found how to capture the event behind the X button in SearchView

Below is a code snippet from onCreateOptionsMenu function in one of my apps. mSearchMenu and mSearchView are global variables.The X is actually an ImageView with ID search_close_btn and the text area is an EditText view with ID search_src_text

@SuppressLint("NewApi")    @Override    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {        // Inflate the menu items for use in the action bar        MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();        inflater.inflate(R.menu.country_list_activity_actions, menu);        mSearchMenu = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB) {            // Get the SearchView and set the searchable configuration            SearchManager searchManager = (SearchManager) getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE);            mSearchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.action_search).getActionView();            // Assumes current activity is the searchable activity            mSearchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName()));            mSearchView.setIconifiedByDefault(false); // Do not iconify the widget; expand it by default            // Get the search close button image view            ImageView closeButton = (ImageView)mSearchView.findViewById(R.id.search_close_btn);            // Set on click listener            closeButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {                @Override                public void onClick(View v) {                    LoggerUtils.d(LOG, "Search close button clicked");                    //Find EditText view                    EditText et = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.search_src_text);                    //Clear the text from EditText view                    et.setText("");                    //Clear query                    mSearchView.setQuery("", false);                    //Collapse the action view                    mSearchView.onActionViewCollapsed();                    //Collapse the search widget                    mSearchMenu.collapseActionView();                }            });        }        // When using the support library, the setOnActionExpandListener() method is        // static and accepts the MenuItem object as an argument        mSearchMenu.setOnActionExpandListener(new OnActionExpandListener() {            @Override            public boolean onMenuItemActionExpand(MenuItem item) {                //Nothing to do here                LoggerUtils.d(LOG, "Search widget expand ");                return true; // Return true to expand action view            }            @Override            public boolean onMenuItemActionCollapse(MenuItem item) {                LoggerUtils.d(LOG, "Search widget colapsed ");                return true; // Return true to collapse action view            }        });        return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);    }

you can just use the onCloseListener()

sv= (SearchView) findViewById(R.id.searchView1);sv.setOnCloseListener(new OnCloseListener() {            @Override            public boolean onClose() {                Toast t = Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "close", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);                t.show();                return false;            }        });

I had problems trying to find the component by its ID but I found another way to search this component using the context of the same SearchView

// Catch event on [x] button inside search viewint searchCloseButtonId = searchView.getContext().getResources()                .getIdentifier("android:id/search_close_btn", null, null);ImageView closeButton = (ImageView) this.searchView.findViewById(searchCloseButtonId);// Set on click listenercloseButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {    @Override    public void onClick(View v) {       // Manage this event.    }});
