                Linkify.MatchFilter matchFilter, 
                Linkify.TransformFilter transformFilter)

Applies a regex to the text of a TextView turning the matches into links. If links are found then UrlSpans are applied to the link text match areas, and the movement method for the text is changed to LinkMovementMethod.

Parameters
text TextView: TextView whose text is to be marked-up with links
pattern Pattern: Regex pattern to be used for finding links
scheme String: URL scheme string (eg http://) to be prepended to the links that do not start with this scheme.
matchFilter Linkify.MatchFilter: The filter that is used to allow the client code additional control over which pattern matches are to be converted into links.

Parameters
text TextView: TextView whose text is to be marked-up with links.
pattern Pattern: Regex pattern to be used for finding links.
defaultScheme String: The default scheme to be prepended to links if the link does not start with one of the schemes given.
