I would like to know how I change the format of EditText
type date
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="date"
android:ems="10"
android:id="@+id/dtfinal"
android:layout_below="@+id/textView6"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:text="@string/lbldtfinal"/>
With this format, when the user types the date, the format that appears on the screen and is saved to my program is: 14042016. I would like it to be automatically added when the user type the date, , when he typed the 14th, appeared on the screen for him 14- and then the result of what he typed would be 14-04-2016.
I know I have to change something in xml
, and I know there is calendar
and datapicker
, but I'd like something simpler like this example above.
But examples with datapicker would be good for future changes as long as I explained how I should use it.
