Make EditText ReadOnly

Question

I want to make a read-only EditText view. The XML to do this code seems to be android:editable=\"false\", but I want to do this in code.

Answer 1

android:editable

If set, specifies that this TextView has an input method. It will be a textual one unless it has otherwise been specified. For TextView, this is false by default. For EditText, it is true by default.

Must be a boolean value, either true or false.

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form @[package:]type:name) or theme attribute (in the form ?[package:][type:]name) containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol editable.
