I'm trying to enable and disable an EditText in Android, using a Switch.
If the switch is true, I want that the EditText is enabled and I can write in it. If the switch is false, I want that the EditText is disabled and I can't write in it.
I've tried like this but it doesn't work.
Here is the XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<Switch
android:id="@+id/switchGaranzia"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Garanzia"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@+id/numeroArticoliText"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/descizioneArticoloText"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.298" />
<EditText
android:id="@+id/testEnabeld"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:text="Prova"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.497"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/switchGaranzia"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.0" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
And here is the Java code:
private KeyListener listener;
private EditText textEdit;
switchGaranzia = (Switch) view.findViewById(R.id.switchGaranzia);
textEdit = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.testEnabeld);
listener = textEdit.getKeyListener();
if(switchGaranzia.isChecked()){
Log.v("ERROR" , "ENABLED");
textEdit.setKeyListener(null);
} else {
Log.v("ERROR", "DISABLED");
textEdit.setKeyListener(listener);
}
The problem is that the log show me only "DISABLED", because the switch starts off disabled.
