I'm following an e-book of android first developing; in a certain point the goal was to change color of each letter cyclically.
the example is written in pieces and it's not clear for me how to glue them well.
NOTE: I inserted the definition of selfchange, in the book it wasn't put.
So where are the errors? in this way my app crash. Should I put @Override over the onTextChanged method?
I wrote like this:
public class CustomTextView extends TextView
{
public CustomTextView(Context context,AttributeSet attributeSet,int defSytle)
{
super(context, attributeSet, defSytle);
}
public CustomTextView(Context context,AttributeSet attributeSet)
{
super(context, attributeSet);
}
public CustomTextView(Context context)
{
super(context);
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
protected void onTextChanged(CharSequence text,
int start, int lengthBefore, int lengthAfter)
{
if(selfChange)
{
selfChange = false;
return;
}
selfChange=true;
SpannableStringBuilder builder = new SpannableStringBuilder(text);
builder.clearSpans();
ForegroundColorSpan colorSpan;
int color;
for(int i=0; i < text.length(); i++)
{
//pick the next color
color = colorArray[i%colorArray.length];
//Create the color span
colorSpan = new ForegroundColorSpan(color);
//Add the color span for this one char
builder.setSpan(colorSpan,
i, i,
Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
}
setText(builder);
}
boolean selfChange = false;
int colorArray[] = new int[]
{
Color.WHITE,
Color.RED,
Color.YELLOW,
Color.GREEN,
Color.BLUE,
Color.MAGENTA,
Color.CYAN,
Color.DKGRAY
};
}
