Question

I’m writing custom EditTextPreference.

Using this code inside my CustomEditTextPreference:

@Override
protected void onDialogClosed(boolean shouldSave) {
    if (shouldSave) {
        String sValue = getText();          
        value = Float.parseFloat(sValue);           
        peristValue();
    }
}

sValue is null. How do I acquire the value from edit then?

Answer 1

You should probably use

getEditText().getText().toString();

Since getText() by itself gets the current SharedPreference value, which may or may not exist.
