EditText onClickListener in Android

Question

I want an EditText which creates a DatePicker when is pressed. So I write the following code:

    mEditInit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.date_init);
    mE         


        

Answer 1

Here is the solution I implemented

mPickDate.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {

    @Override
    public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
        showDialog(DATE_DIALOG_ID);
        return false;
    }
});

OR

mPickDate.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {

    @Override
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
        showDialog(DATE_DIALOG_ID);

    }
});

See the differences by yourself. Problem is since (like RickNotFred said) TextView to display the date & edit via the DatePicker. TextEdit is not used for its primary purpose. If you want the DatePicker to re-pop up, you need to input delete (1st case) or de focus (2nd case).
