Android Question EditText Clear

[shashkiranr]

Hi All,

Need to clear edittext without firing textchanged method. I wanted use

editText.getText().clear();

. Is there a way to achieve this using javaobject or reflection method ?

Best,
SK

I do not want to sound naive or simplistic, but why not do this:
editText.Text =""

Hi Mahares,

It triggers the textchange method.

Try this:

Dim ETJO As JavaObject = EditText1
    ETJO.RunMethodJO("getText",Null).RunMethod("clear",Null)

It clears the text, but still fires the textchanged method.

You'll probably need to use a Global variable flag, and check it and exit the textchanged event if it's set(and unset it), then set the flag when you amend the text but don't want to process the code in the textchanged event.

editText.Text = ""

Sub editText_TextChanged(Old As String, New As String)
 If New = "" Then Return
