Can't pass random integer when calling makeText()

Question

I am new to android and was playing around with the makeText method of Toast class. I noticed that when calling makeText, I could not pass an integer for the duration parameter other than TOAST.LENGTH_LONG and TOAST.LENGTH_SHORT. Android studio warned that it has been annotated with @intDef but when I opened the source code for Toast class, I couldn't find where the parameter was annotated. Any idea how this is enforced?

My target SDK version is API 19: Android 4.4 (KitKat). The signature is:

public static Toast makeText(Context context, CharSequence text, int duration)

Answer 1

In Android 5.1.1, the duration parameter of Toast.makeText() is annotated with @Duration. This annotation is in turn annotated with @IntDef.

Answer 2

below code is working for me

     final int SHORT_DELAY = 2000; // 2 seconds

  Toast.makeText(getActivity(),String.valueOf(12314),SHORT_DELAY).show();
