Setting onClickListeners to edit text box in fragment

I have a coFragment.xml file that includes an EditText box, and some buttons. In my coFragment.java file, I would like to register onClickListeners to the buttons, so that when they're pressed, text will be added to the EditText box.

My coFragment.java file currently has

public class CoFragment extends Fragment implements View.OnClickListener {

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup parentViewGroup,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    final View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.coFragment, parentViewGroup, false);

    EditText input = (EditText) getView().findViewById(R.id.input_id);

    Button oneButton = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.one_button_id);
    Button twoButton = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.two_button_id);
    Button threeButton = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.three_button_id);

    oneButton.setOnClickListener(this);
    twoButton.setOnClickListener(this);
    threeButton.setOnClickListener(this)
}

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    switch (v.getId()) {
        case R.id.one_button_id:
            input.append("1");
            break;
        case R.id.two_button_id:
            input.append("2");
            break;
        case R.id.three_button_id:
            input.append("3");
            break;
}

Obviously, I currently cannot access the input EditText object in the onClick method. How might I go about getting the functionality that I want?

If you want to access EditText outside onCreateView() you need to declare it outside any method and initialize it in onCreateView()-

 private EditText input;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup parentViewGroup,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {

....

 input = (EditText) v.findViewById(R.id.input_id);
....
}

Now you can use input anywhere inn your fragment.
