Selection of EdiText input method in Android Dialog

Selection of EdiText input method in Android Dialog

Under normal circumstances, most of the default EditTexts will automatically wake up the input method, but someone in the group today asked why the EditText in Dialog cannot be like this. After roughly analyzing the following, Dialog is its own separate Window. The behavior after setContentView may be different from the window of Activity, or is due to the life cycle, which causes Dialog's EditText to request the wake-up input method, but the input method is not displayed correctly. Let's not continue to analyze it. Since it is due to the problem of requesting the input method, we can just request the input at the correct time. Directly uploading the code is just an idea, how to organize the code and freely exert it.

 Dialog dialog = new Dialog(this); final EditText view = new EditText(this); (view); 
(); // (new Runnable() {

    @Override
    public void run() {
      InputMethodManager im = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
      (view, 0);
    }
  });`
