Android Question TextChanged event

[Chianca]

Hello, i'm having some problems to fire the TextChanged event of an EditText, cause i'm creating it by code, like this example above:

ScrollView_Customer.Panel.AddView(CreateTextBox("0","EdtName","Name"),0,TopDistance,EditTextWidth,EditTextHeight)

The CreateTextBox return an EditText element and before i create it, i cant use TextChanged event of this EditText. How can i solve this problem?


Thanks to all!

Can you show us the code of the CreateTextBox and the signature for the CallBack sub "_TextChanged(Old As String, New As String)"

Sure, here is the code:

1st: Add the EditText:

ScrollView_Customer.Panel.AddView(CreateTextBox("0","EdtName","Name"),0,TopDistance,EditTextWidth,EditTextHeight)

2nd: CreateTextBox SUB:

'Sub CreateTextBox
Sub CreateTextBox(DataType As String,TagId As String, TxtHint As String) As EditText
  Dim edt As EditText
    edt.Initialize("EditText")
  edt.SingleLine = True
  edt.Tag = TagId
  edt.Hint = TxtHint
  edt.Color = Colors.RGB(240,240,240)
  edt.TextColor = Colors.Black
  If DataType = "0" Then
    edt.InputType = edt.INPUT_TYPE_TEXT
    Else If DataType = "1" Then
    edt.InputType = edt.INPUT_TYPE_NUMBERS
    Else If DataType = "2" Then
    edt.InputType = edt.INPUT_TYPE_DECIMAL_NUMBERS
    Else If DataType = "3" Then
    edt.InputType = edt.INPUT_TYPE_PHONE
  End If
    Return edt
End Sub

3rd: TextChanged

'TextChanged Event
Sub EdtName_TextChanged(Old As String,New As String)
  EdtName.color = Colors.White
End Sub

You are initializing the EditText EventName as "EditText". The TextChanged event sub signature should be:

Sub EditText_TextChanged(Old As String,New As String)
     Dim ET AS EditText = sender
     ET.Color = Colors.White
End Sub

to get the EditText that was changed you need to use the Sender keyword as in my example.
