How to close Android Soft KeyBoard programmatically?

Question

I am currently showing softkeyboard using the following code

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
im         


        

Answer 1

This code hides the keyboard from inside onItemClick of an AutoCompleteTextView

public void onItemClick(AdapterView adapterViewIn, View viewIn, int indexSelected, long arg3) {
     // whatever your code does
     InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(viewIn.getContext().INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
     imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(viewIn.getApplicationWindowToken(), 0);
}
