This example demonstrate about How to use indexOf () in Android textview.
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="https://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="https://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" xmlns:tools="https://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" android:gravity="center" tools:context=".MainActivity"> <EditText android:id="@+id/name" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:hint="Enter name" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> <Button android:id="@+id/click" android:text="Click" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/textview" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textSize="25sp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> </LinearLayout>
In the above code, we have taken name as Edit text, when user click on button it will take data and returns index of “sai”.
Step 3 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java
package com.example.myapplication; import android.os.Bundle; import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity; import android.view.View; import android.widget.Button; import android.widget.EditText; import android.widget.TextView; public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity { EditText name; Button button; TextView text; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); name = findViewById(R.id.name); button = findViewById(R.id.click); text = findViewById(R.id.textview); button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { if (!name.getText().toString().isEmpty()) { if (name.getText().toString().length() >= 0) { int index = name.getText().toString().indexOf("sai"); text.setText(String.valueOf(index)); } } else { name.setError("Plz enter name"); } } }); } }
Let's try to run your application. I assume you have connected your actual Android Mobile device with your computer. To run the app from android studio, open one of your project's activity files and click Run icon from the toolbar. Select your mobile device as an option and then check your mobile device which will display your default screen −
In the above result, enter the string as “Krishna sai” and it returned index of sai as 8.
