I am creating an android application wherein I have mentioned the phone number, email, website of the business similar to the screenshot of google maps as attached.
Just like in the g maps where
Single click makes an intent to the respective app (opens dialer with phone number copied) etc.
Long Click/Press & hold will copy the number to clipboard displaying a toast that "Phone number is copied to clicpboard".
Now I have set up the intents properly and they are working fine --> step-1 achieved.
When I try to display the toast using "OnLongClickListener" method it is taking quite some time to display the toast message. Is there any way we can speed this up or am I missing something or should I use some other alternative like onTouch() method?
(Stuck with this, yet to learn and try out copying to clipboard thing. Inputs in this regards are also welcome!)
In the g maps app, the toast message appears almost instantly on press & hold. So the same is to be achieved.
The code extract from MainActivity.java (The website, phone number, email id are text views with drawableLeft. And I found out that we cannot use setOnItemLongClick on TextView as it is only for ListView)
// This method is called when the website text view is clicked and opens the compnay website
public void openWebsite(View v) {
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.webURL_text_view);
textView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent openWebsiteIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
openWebsiteIntent.setData(Uri.parse("https://www.company.com"));
if (openWebsiteIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(openWebsiteIntent);
}
}
});
textView.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
@Override
public boolean onLongClick(View view) {
showMessage();
return true;
}
});
}
public void showMessage(){
Toast.makeText(this,"Information copied to Clipboard", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
I am new to android development and just trying out something, so please be as elaborative as possible. Thank You.
