One OnClickHandler for multiple Buttons

Viewed 73751

I find myself doing things like this all the time:

    Button button1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
    Button button2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
    Button button3 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button3);

    button1.setOnClickListener(menuButtonListener);
    button2.setOnClickListener(menuButtonListener);
    button3.setOnClickListener(menuButtonListener);
...

and

   private OnClickListener myButtonListener = new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
      switch(v.getId()){
       case R.id.button1 :
    ...

Is there a better way to set the OnClickListener?

If you want to do less code for click listeners you have this lib [http://jakewharton.github.io/butterknife/]

you just have to do this

 @OnClick({ R.id.button1, R.id.button2, R.id.button3 })
public void doSomething(View button) {
    //do whatever you want
    button.changeWhateverInTheView();
}
