How to databind to onTextChanged for an EditText on Android?

by

Actually it works out of the box. I think my mistake was using an old version of the data binding framework. Using the latest, this is the procedure:

View:

<EditText
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/username"
    android:text="Enter username:"
    android:onTextChanged="@{data.onTextChanged}" />

Model:

public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
    Log.w("tag", "onTextChanged " + s);
}

Make also sure that you have assigned model into DataBinding

For ex. in your activity

lateinit var activityMainDataBinding: ActivityMainBinding

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    activityMainDataBinding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView(this, R.layout.activity_main) 
    val dataViewModel = ViewModelProvider(this).get(DataViewModel::class.java)
    activityMainDataBinding.dataModel = dataViewModel
}

Make sure you are referncing gradle build tools v1.5.0 or higher and have enabled databinding with android.dataBinding.enabled true in your build.gradle.

edit: Functioning demo project here. view. model.
