How do I handle ImeOptions' done button click?

Solution 1:

I ended up with a combination of Roberts and chirags answers:

((EditText)findViewById(R.id.search_field)).setOnEditorActionListener(
        new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
        // Identifier of the action. This will be either the identifier you supplied,
        // or EditorInfo.IME_NULL if being called due to the enter key being pressed.
        if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_SEARCH
                || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE
                || event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN
                && event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER) {
            onSearchAction(v);
            return true;
        }
        // Return true if you have consumed the action, else false.
        return false;
    }
});

Update: The above code would some times activate the callback twice. Instead I've opted for the following code, which I got from the Google chat clients:

public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
    // If triggered by an enter key, this is the event; otherwise, this is null.
    if (event != null) {
        // if shift key is down, then we want to insert the '\n' char in the TextView;
        // otherwise, the default action is to send the message.
        if (!event.isShiftPressed()) {
            if (isPreparedForSending()) {
                confirmSendMessageIfNeeded();
            }
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

    if (isPreparedForSending()) {
        confirmSendMessageIfNeeded();
    }
    return true;
}

Solution 2:

Try this, it should work for what you need:


editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
    if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
       //do here your stuff f
       return true;
    }
    return false;
    } 
});

Solution 3:

<EditText android:imeOptions="actionDone"
          android:inputType="text"/>

The Java code is:

edittext.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() { 
    public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
        if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
            Log.i(TAG,"Here you can write the code");
            return true;
        }    
        return false;
    }
});
