trigger CheckedChanged programmatically for toggleButton (CompoundButton)

How can I trigger programmatically the following method : (without clicking/swiping the on/off toggle switch)

@Override
public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked)
{
  //randomness
}

I figured an alternative way would be, calling 

switch1.setChecked(true);

Then doing a manual check.

There actually is a way of calling it if you refer to the class methods ;)

ToggleButton t = (ToggleButton) findViewById(R.id.myToggle); t.performClick();

See http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/CompoundButton.html#performClick()

There is no way of calling the onCheckedChanged of a CompoundButton (ToggleButton or Switch) like this.

However, I see two other solutions:

  1. Keep the listener object around and manually calling the onCheckedChanged function with the button and the boolean.
  2. Abstract the logic inside the CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangedListener implementation into another function that you can call manually.
