Android Studio Button onClickListener Example

In my previous example I had shown how you can create your own custom method that can be called when a button is clicked in your Android Activity while working in Android Studio - https://code2care.org/q/android-studio-button-on-click-example

Now let's see how you can perform the same action by using the onClickListener,

1. Create a button in your activity XML file,
2. Make sure you add an android:id to it,
3. Now in your Java Activity class onCreate method, create the object of the button: Button myButton = findViewById(R.id.button);
4. On the myButton object call the onClickListener method with an anonymous implementation. Example:

       @Override
       protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
           
           super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
   
           setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
   
           Button myButton = findViewById(R.id.button2);
   
           myButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
               @Override
               public void onClick(View v) {
                   System.out.println("Button Clicked!");
               }
           });
       }

Output on button Clicked:

2021-04-23 23:29:30.182 6655-6655/com.app I/System.out: Button Clicked!
2021-04-23 23:29:30.658 6655-6655/com.app I/System.out: Button Clicked!
