Android Question EditText_FocusChanged not fired after button clicked

[toby]

I have simple test app (attached) with 3 views (2 EditText and 1 button). I want to save EditText2's change, all at once after editing is completed, so I thought FocusChanged event is better than TextChanged event which is fired for every letter entered or deleted.

After entering some text at EditText2 field, If I click on EditText1, EditText2_FocusChanged would be fired as expected. However if I click Button1 instead of EditText1, the event in question wouldn't be fired.

Did I miss anything? Is there a workaround?

Thanks in advance for your helps!

It happens because Buttons are not "focusable" by default.

Use this method (select the Reflection library):

Sub SetFocusable(Vw As View, Focusable As Boolean)
    Dim objRefl As Reflector
    objRefl.Target = Vw
    objRefl.RunMethod2("setFocusable", Focusable, "java.lang.boolean")
    objRefl.RunMethod2("setFocusableInTouchMode", Focusable, "java.lang.boolean")
End Sub

Call it after Activity.Loadlayout:
SetFocusable(Button1, True)

Equivalent JavaObject based code:

Sub SetFocusable(Vw As View, Focusable As Boolean)
    Dim jo As JavaObject = Vw
    jo.RunMethod("setFocusable", Array(Focusable))
    jo.RunMethod("setFocusableInTouchMode", Array(Focusable))
End Sub

Both solutions work.

Thanks ;-)
