What is the difference between inputType=text and not having the inputType field at all

  • 0

What is the difference between inputType=”text” and not having the inputType field at all in an XML layout? The behavior does not appear to be different when I remove inputType completely (likely because I am just constantly updating uneditable text), but I’d just like to make sure.

This is in response to a strange ICS bug where if you have an EditText with any kind of inputType=”__”, a spellcheck is done and a red underline is placed on the misspelled word.

Thanks.

    There is some difference interms of input richness. Here is a link Why Input type? and Inputtype interface API

    In Inputtype interface link if you observe TYPE_CLASS_TEXT and TYPE_NULL you will clearly understand the difference.
