Too many arguments for public open fun isEnabled()

Question

I want to disable the editText once timer is finished. Have a look on the following code:

val CountDownTimer=object: CountDownTimer(10000,1000){
    override fun onTick(millisUntilFinished: Long) {
        txtTimer.setText(""+millisUntilFinished/1000)
    }
    override fun onFinish() {
        Toast.makeText(this@Play_Area,"time up!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
        etResponse.isEnabled(false)
    }
}

Here etResponse is EditText and when i make #isEnables(false) it is showing following error:

Too many arguments for public open fun isEnabled(): Boolean defined in android.widget.EditText

Please Help How to resolve it

Answer 1

You are using the wrong function.

editText.isEnabled() is used to return the enabled state only and it doesn't take an argument so you can call it like that

val state: Boolean = editText.isEnabled()

instead, you should use editText.isEnabled = true because the property is mutable

editText.isEnabled = false
