Android定义editview数组,【整理】Android中EditText中的InputType类型含义与如何定义

【背景】

经过一些Android中EditText方面的折腾：

然后对于EditText(或TextView)中的InputType的值的含义和类型，以及如何定义，有了个更清晰点的认识。

现在整理如下：

EditText的InputType属性，可以在代码中设置，也可以预先在xml中定义

设置EditText的InputType属性，最简单省事的办法就是在定义EditText的xml中直接设置。

比如：

想要设置一个可编辑的文本框的输入内容为只能输入数字，则就可以：

(1)xml中定义InputType为number

android:id="@+id/variableValue"

......

android:inputType="number" />

(2)代码中设置InputType为TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | TYPE_NUMBER_VARIATION_NORMALEditText variableValueView = (EditText) variableLayout.findViewById(R.id.variableValue);

int inputType = InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | InputType.TYPE_NUMBER_VARIATION_NORMAL;

variableValueView.setInputType(inputType);

这样的话，之后界面中生成的EditText，当点击后要输入内容的时候，弹出的输入法，自动变成那种只能输入数字的小键盘类型的了：

另外，附上，正常的普通字符串，即：

xml中：android:inputType="text"

或代码中：someEditText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_NORMAL);

时，显示出来的输入法键盘的效果：

EditText的InputType属性对应的xml定义有哪些，以及代码中设置的InputType类型有哪些

知道了设置EditText的InputType属性值，既可以通过xml中定义，也可以在代码中设置为InputType的某种值，但是到底这些值有哪些，以及分别对应的含义是啥，则可以参考官网：

textPassword0x00000081

textVisiblePassword0x00000091Text that is a password that should be visible. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_VISIBLE_PASSWORD.

textWebEditText0x000000a1Text that is being supplied as text in a web form. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_WEB_EDIT_TEXT.

textFilter0x000000b1Text that is filtering some other data. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_FILTER.

textPhonetic0x000000c1Text that is for phonetic pronunciation, such as a phonetic name field in a contact entry. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PHONETIC.

textWebEmailAddress0x000000d1Text that will be used as an e-mail address on a web form. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_WEB_EMAIL_ADDRESS.

textWebPassword0x000000e1Text that will be used as a password on a web form. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_WEB_PASSWORD.

numberDecimal0x00002002Can be combined with number and its other options to allow a decimal (fractional) number. Corresponds to TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | TYPE_NUMBER_FLAG_DECIMAL.

numberPassword0x00000012

datetime0x00000004

date0x00000014

time0x00000024

如此，就可以自己去在xml或代码中，分别试试，每种不同的InputType对应的都是什么效果了。

注意：通过代码给InputType赋值时，不是设置TYPE_XXX_VARIATION_YYY，而是要设置TYPE_CLASS_XXX | TYPE_XXXX_VARAITION_YYY

之前在代码中给InputType设置值，错写成：inputType = InputType.TYPE_DATETIME_VARIATION_TIME;

导致，EditText点击后，不显示输入法键盘，改为正确的：inputType = InputType.TYPE_CLASS_DATETIME | InputType.TYPE_DATETIME_VARIATION_TIME;

就可以正常的显示键盘了。

而后，也注意到官网

的解释中的示例：A password field with with the password visible to the user:inputType = TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_VISIBLE_PASSWORDA multi-line postal address with automatic capitalization:inputType = TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_POSTAL_ADDRESS | TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_MULTI_LINEA time field:inputType = TYPE_CLASS_DATETIME | TYPE_DATETIME_VARIATION_TIME

以及

中提示的：

“Must be one or more (separated by ‘|’) of the following constant values.”

即：

需要一个或多个值，中间通过竖杠"|"去抑或(按位或)的。
