NumberKeyListener()

Public methods

CharSequence filter(CharSequence source, int start, int end, Spanned dest, int dstart, int dend)

This method is called when the buffer is going to replace the range dstart … dend of dest with the new text from the range start … end of source.

boolean onKeyDown(View view, Editable content, int keyCode, KeyEvent event)

Handles presses of the meta keys.

Protected methods

abstract char[] getAcceptedChars()

You can say which characters you can accept.

filter

Added in API level 1
public CharSequence filter (CharSequence source, 
                int start, 
                int end, 
                Spanned dest, 
                int dstart, 
                int dend)

This method is called when the buffer is going to replace the range dstart … dend of dest with the new text from the range start … end of source. Return the CharSequence that you would like to have placed there instead, including an empty string if appropriate, or null to accept the original replacement. Be careful to not to reject 0-length replacements, as this is what happens when you delete text. Also beware that you should not attempt to make any changes to dest from this method; you may only examine it for context. Note: If source is an instance of Spanned or Spannable, the span objects in the source should be copied into the filtered result (i.e. the non-null return value). TextUtils#copySpansFrom can be used for convenience if the span boundary indices would be remaining identical relative to the source.

Parameters
source CharSequence

start int

end int

dest Spanned

dstart int

dend int

Returns
CharSequence

Handles presses of the meta keys.
