How to delete instantly SPACE from an edittext if a user presses the space?

Question

I have an edittext, and a textwatcher that watches if SPACE arrived or not. If its a SPACE I would like to delete that instantly. Or if its a space I want to make sure it do

Answer 1

@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
    String result = s.toString().replaceAll("\\s", "");
    if (!s.toString().equals(result)) {
        int pos = editText.getSelectionStart() - (s.length() - result.length());
        editText.setText(result);
        editText.setSelection(Math.max(0,Math.min(pos, result.length())));
        editText.setError("No spaces allowed");
    }
}

\s matches any whitespace character (equal to [\r\n\t\f\v ])

Setting selection like this, allow you to enter or paste text in middle of edittext without loosing cursor position
