How to disable searchview?

Question

Can you help me on how to disable searchview when button is pressed? I\'m trying this code:

searchView.setEnabled(false);
                searchView.setFocu         


        

Answer 1

searchView.findViewById(R.id.search_button).setEnabled(false);

But you must check it for null and hide searchView:

ImageView searchBtn = (ImageView) searchView.findViewById(R.id.search_button);
if (searchBtn != null) searchBtn.setEnabled(false);
searchView.setVisibility(View.GONE);

I think this will work
