How to create our own Listener interface in android?

Question

Could someone help me to create user defined listener interface with some code snippets?

Answer 1

Create a new file:

MyListener.java:

public interface MyListener {
    // you can define any parameter as per your requirement
    public void callback(View view, String result);
}

In your activity, implement the interface:

MyActivity.java:

public class MyActivity extends Activity implements MyListener {
   @override        
   public void onCreate(){
        MyButton m = new MyButton(this);
   }

    // method is invoked when MyButton is clicked
    @override
    public void callback(View view, String result) {   
        // do your stuff here
    }
}

In your custom class, invoke the interface when needed:

MyButton.java:

public class MyButton {
    MyListener ml;

    // constructor
    MyButton(MyListener ml) {
        //Setting the listener
        this.ml = ml;
    }

    public void MyLogicToIntimateOthers() {
        //Invoke the interface
        ml.callback(this, "success");
    }
}
