How to wait for a response after a certain command?

Question

Here is a line of code that I have:

public class ReminderHandler()  {
  if (edittext.containsReminderWords()){
  test.setText("Do you want me to remind you to " + sharedPref.getString(toremember, toremember) + "?");
    }
}

I want the program to wait for either a yes or a no answer from the edittext after this specific line of command.

I have no idea how though.

How can I achieve this?

Answer 1

JOptionPane has plenty of options for you to use.

JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Do you want to do something?")

See here for the documentation

Answer 2

You better use AlertDialog. Check this link to know more about android Dialogs

Answer 3

you would do this with an event:

• a button near the text input that say something like "do it"/"save"/"done", etc.
• an event, like focus changed, touch up,etc. see: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/ui-events.html
