I'm trying to modify the action when the user clicks the "DEL" key (on the screen keyboard), here's the code
ed.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {
@Override
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL) {
if(contadorcor == 0){
String output = correctOutput(String.valueOf(ed.getText()));
ed.setText(output);
ed.setSelection(num);
contadorcor++;
}
}
contadorcor = 0;
return false;
}
});
public static String correctOutput(String s) {
String input = s;
int pos = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < input.length(); i++) {
if(input.charAt(i) != ' ') {
if(input.charAt(i) != '_') {
pos = i;
}
}
}
String output = "";
for (int i = 0; i < input.length(); i++) {
if(i != pos) {
output = output + String.valueOf(input.charAt(i));
} else {
output = output + "_";
}
}
num = num - 2;
return output;
}
To understand why I do this its because there is an unknown word like this "_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ....." and when the user deletes a letter when trying to guess it, lets say "T H I S I K |_ _ ... " and wants to correct the "K" and the cursor is just at the start of the next "underscore" i want to delete the "k" and substitute it by a "underscore" then place the cursor there. "T H I S I |_ _ _ _ ...."
But when I press the delete key makes this action twice, and deletes 2 letters. I supose that captures keydown and keyup and thats why it repeats but i dont know how to fix it. I've tryed to make some kind of counter but it is not working either
Thanks in advance.
