Yes.
1. Create a class which inherits ClickableSpan. See URLSpan for an
example.
2. Your action will go into onClick() of this class.
3. Set the text with setSpan().
I have an example here, although this is using a URLSpan, you would
need to change URLSpan to your custom ClickableSpan class.
/**
* Adapted from the {...@link android.text.util.Linkify} class. Changes
the
* first instance of {...@code link} into a HTTP link with the given
{...@code
* url}.
*/
public static void linkify(TextView view, final String link,
final String url)
{
CharSequence text = view.getText();
String string = text.toString();
URLSpan span = new URLSpan(url);
int start = string.indexOf(link);
int end = start + link.length();
if (start == -1)
return;
if (text instanceof Spannable)
{
((Spannable) text).setSpan(span, start, end,
Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
}
else
{
SpannableString s = SpannableString.valueOf(text);
s.setSpan(span, start, end,
Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
view.setText(s);
}
// Adapted from Linkify.addLinkMovementMethod(), to make links
clickable
//
MovementMethod m = view.getMovementMethod();
if ((m == null) || !(m instanceof LinkMovementMethod))
{
view.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
}
}
