Hi guys, I've been following step by step the code to the first example of the ToDoList App but, even though it compiles perfectly and run on my device, it seems that the keypress event is never reached.

This is the code:

myEditText.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {
@Override
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
{
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DPAD_CENTER)||
(keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)){
todoItems.add(0, myEditText.getText().toString());
aa.notifyDataSetChanged();
myEditText.setText("");
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
});

I'm using Android Studio instead of Eclipse, maybe it has something to do with this error, or maybe the code in the example is too old and some parts are deprecated already...

Thanks in advance...

can u upload the full code?

There is a solution mentioned in this post by NeedAName:


1. I needed to make the EditText accept single line input only. I did this in the <EditText> node (I also set the button to "Done"):
android:singLine="true"
android:imeOptions="actionDone"

2. Next, in the onCreate() I added the following after the "myListView.setAdapter(aa);" line:

// Catch the "done" button on softkeyboard
myEditText.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener(){
@Override
public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE){
//done Clicked
addTextToListView(myEditText, todoItems, aa);
return true;
}
return false;
}
});

Try it.

Cheers MF
