android 画布 edittext,java - Can't draw editText in android canvas - Stack Overflow

I am trying to add an editText box to my android project. This project is done almost entirely with Java (barely any xml), so I would like to know how to get this done in Java. My current implementation which is getting a runtime error is as follows:

public class MainMenu extends View{

EditText editText;

public MainMenu(Context context) {

super(context);

EditText editText = new EditText(context);

editText.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);

editText.setText("My Text");

editText.setWidth(180);

editText.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);

}

@Override

protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas){

super.onDraw(canvas);

editText.draw(canvas);

invalidate();

}

}

Can anyone point out what is wrong and possibly offer a solution using Java?
