I'm creating an application which updates users on the score of a football match either in real time or as a final result. At least one score must be inputted in order for the TextView
to be updated and the relevant score to be displayed. I'm checking that at least 1 of a pair of EditText
fields is not empty using the following code:
if(!(et_current.getText().toString().isEmpty())||(!(et_final.getText().toString().isEmpty()))
&& (!(et_current2.getText().toString().isEmpty())||(!(et_final2.getText().toString().isEmpty()))){
if(!(et_final.getText().toString().isEmpty()))
tv_final.setText(et_final.getText().toString());
else
tv_current.setText(et_current.getText().toString());
if(!(et_final2.getText().toString().isEmpty()))
tv_final2.setText(et_final2.getText().toString());
else
tv_current2.setText(et_current2.getText().toString());
}
I want to be able to set the correct TextView
so I have another if statement inside the original if statement to see ensure the correct score is being updated.
When I run the code, I do not seem to be getting past the first if statement. Am I using the correct format or is there an better way to complete these checks?
Thanks!
For readabilities sake, get some variables going
boolean currentEmpty = et_current.getText().toString().isEmpty();
boolean current2Empty = et_current2.getText().toString().isEmpty();
boolean finalEmpty = et_final.getText().toString().isEmpty();
boolean final2Empty = et_final2.getText().toString().isEmpty();
And then your code can be much cleaner. Something like
if( (!currentEmpty || !finalEmpty) || (!current2Empty || !final2Empty)) {
if(finalEmpty) {
tv_current.setText(et_current.getText());
}
else {
tv_final.setText(et_final.getText());
}
if(final2Empty) {
tv_current2.setText(et_current2.getText());
}
else {
tv_final2.setText(et_final2.getText());
}
}
I'm not sure if that is completely correct as the requirement is not entirely clear to me, but it should atleast be a good start to follow what's going on.
