Use both onClickListener and onLongClickListener in listview Android 1.6

Question

I am using both onClickListener and onLongClickListener for a TextView in a ListView. I see that in Android 1.6, the long click listener is fired along with the on click listener meaning both are fired when I long click. But this is not the case in the future versions. Is there any fix for this?

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

  if (convertView == null) {
    LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
    row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row, parent, false);
  }

  TextView tv = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.tv);

  tv.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
      @Override
      public void onClick(View view) {
        showMessage();
      }
  });

  tv.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
      @Override
      public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
        showLongMessage();
      }
  });
}

What "fix"? The fact that it fired both in 1.6 is certainly a bug. — Falmarri, Jan 07 '11 at 00:26
Are the callbacks called at exactly the same time when you make a longclick? — Gero, Jan 08 '11 at 02:03
First the longClick event is performed followed by the clickevent. — dcanh121, Jan 11 '11 at 19:01
When I place my finger for 2 sec, onlongclick listener is called and when I lift my finger, click listener is called. — dcanh121, Jan 11 '11 at 20:21

You should check the android documentation, it's quite useful: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.OnLongClickListener.html — winklerrr, Dec 25 '16 at 02:17

Did you return boolean true at the end of OnLongClickListener to indicate you don't want further processing?

I think you you should use OnItemLongClickListener() instead of OnLongClickListener().

TextView t1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
t1.isClickable();

t1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
});

t1.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Long Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        return true;
    }
});

itemToClick.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
   @Override
    public void onClick(View v)      { 
      //do your logic on click 
     });
itemToClick.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
      // do your logic for long click and remember to return it 
        return true; }});
