TextWatcher：监听编辑框EditText中内容的改变

同一个项目，其中有一个小功能，是在用户名输入有误的情况下，使用TextView提示一行：输入的用户名格式不正确。但是一般情况下或是再次输入用户名时，这个TextView的提示是要消失的。

使用TextWatcher就很好的解决问题啦。

TextWatcher用来监听编辑框EditText中内容的改变。

源码：

/**
 * When an object of a type is attached to an Editable, its methods will
 * be called when the text is changed.
 */
public interface TextWatcher extends NoCopySpan {
    /**
     * This method is called to notify you that, within <code>s</code>,
     * the <code>count</code> characters beginning at <code>start</code>
     * are about to be replaced by new text with length <code>after</code>.
     * It is an error to attempt to make changes to <code>s</code> from
     * this callback.
     */
    public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,
                                  int count, int after);
    /**
     * This method is called to notify you that, within <code>s</code>,
     * the <code>count</code> characters beginning at <code>start</code>
     * have just replaced old text that had length <code>before</code>.
     * It is an error to attempt to make changes to <code>s</code> from
     * this callback.
     */
    public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count);
    /**
     * This method is called to notify you that, somewhere within
     * <code>s</code>, the text has been changed.
     * It is legitimate to make further changes to <code>s</code> from
     * this callback, but be careful not to get yourself into an infinite
     * loop, because any changes you make will cause this method to be
     * called again recursively.
     * (You are not told where the change took place because other
     * afterTextChanged() methods may already have made other changes
     * and invalidated the offsets.  But if you need to know here,
     * you can use {@link Spannable#setSpan} in {@link #onTextChanged}
     * to mark your place and then look up from here where the span
     * ended up.
     */
    public void afterTextChanged(Editable s);
}

使用实例：

class ConnectTextWatcher implements TextWatcher {
		@Override
		public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
			// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		}
		@Override
		public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count,
				int after) {
			// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		}
		@Override
		public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before,
				int count) {
			// TODO Auto-generated method stub
			infomationText.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);   //提示信息隐藏
		}
	}

private EditText userName;
userName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.user_name);
userName.addTextChangedListener(new ConnectTextWatcher());

 <EditText
                android:id="@+id/user_name"
                android:layout_width="0dp"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="4"
                android:background="@drawable/bg_edit"
                android:hint="@string/username"
                android:inputType="text"
                android:singleLine="true"
                android:textSize="15sp" />
