Maybe this question has been ask already, but could not find any answer for almost 2hours of internet search.

There is a graphical UI designer wich is coming along with the last android SDK.

Looks pretty cool and well done.

Nevertheless I * cannot find how to attach an event to the control through the graphical editor.

Of course I can add it manually into the xml, but in that case, what’s the purpose of having such tool without that function ?

I mean all the other SDK I had in other languages always include that function.

I’ve also not been able to find doc about how to use this tool. Quite sad…

Thanks

    If you want to add a click event handler, select the button (widget) in the GUI that you want to listen for, and look for the property onClick. Enter the name of the method you want to call when the user clicks on that widget, like.. onMyButtonClick

    Then add the method to your Activity

    public void onMyButtonClick(View v) {
    // I heard the button click
    }

    The GUI builder is getting there, and is not yet as easy to use as the one in XCode, but it’s not hard when you get used to it.
