Inherited Methods

From class android.text.method.NumberKeyListener

CharSequence	filter ( CharSequence source, int start, int end, Spanned dest, int dstart, int dend) This method is called when the buffer is going to replace the range `dstart … dend` of `dest` with the new text from the range `start … end` of `source` .
abstract char[]	getAcceptedChars () You can say which characters you can accept.
int	lookup ( KeyEvent event, Spannable content)
static boolean	ok (char[] accept, char c)
boolean	onKeyDown ( View view, Editable content, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) Handles presses of the meta keys.

From class android.text.method.BaseKeyListener

From class android.text.method.MetaKeyKeyListener

static long	adjustMetaAfterKeypress (long state) Call this method after you handle a keypress so that the meta state will be reset to unshifted (if it is not still down) or primed to be reset to unshifted (once it is released).
static void	adjustMetaAfterKeypress ( Spannable content) Call this method after you handle a keypress so that the meta state will be reset to unshifted (if it is not still down) or primed to be reset to unshifted (once it is released).
static void	clearMetaKeyState ( Editable content, int states)
void	clearMetaKeyState ( View view, Editable content, int states)
long	clearMetaKeyState (long state, int which) Clears the state of the specified meta key if it is locked.
final static int	getMetaState ( CharSequence text) Gets the state of the meta keys.
final static int	getMetaState ( CharSequence text, KeyEvent event) Gets the state of the meta keys for a specific key event.
final static int	getMetaState (long state, int meta) Gets the state of a particular meta key.
final static int	getMetaState (long state) Gets the state of the meta keys.
final static int	getMetaState ( CharSequence text, int meta, KeyEvent event) Gets the state of a particular meta key to use with a particular key event.
final static int	getMetaState ( CharSequence text, int meta) Gets the state of a particular meta key.
static long	handleKeyDown (long state, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) Handles presses of the meta keys.
static long	handleKeyUp (long state, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) Handles release of the meta keys.
static boolean	isMetaTracker ( CharSequence text, Object what) Returns true if this object is one that this class would use to keep track of any meta state in the specified text.
static boolean	isSelectingMetaTracker ( CharSequence text, Object what) Returns true if this object is one that this class would use to keep track of the selecting meta state in the specified text.
boolean	onKeyDown ( View view, Editable content, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) Handles presses of the meta keys.
boolean	onKeyUp ( View view, Editable content, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) Handles release of the meta keys.
static void	resetLockedMeta ( Spannable content) Call this if you are a method that ignores the locked meta state (arrow keys, for example) and you handle a key.
static long	resetLockedMeta (long state) Call this if you are a method that ignores the locked meta state (arrow keys, for example) and you handle a key.
static void	resetMetaState ( Spannable text) Resets all meta state to inactive.

Object	clone () Creates and returns a copy of this `Object` .
boolean	equals ( Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize () Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class <?>	getClass () Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode () Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify () Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll () Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString () Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait () Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait (long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
