I figured out a way to do it.
Just loop through advancing the cursor until you are at the end using
a single key then sending the backspace until you are done:
//Now we need to delete whatever is there. No easy way to do
this in
the Instrumentation class...do it a key at a time
for(int x = 0; x < 7; x++)
{
instrumentation.sendCharacterSync(KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DPAD_RIGHT);
instrumentation.sendCharacterSync(KeyEvent.KEYCODE_DEL);
}
