/**
 * A user interface element for entering and modifying text.
 * When you define an edit text widget, you must specify the
 * {@link android.R.styleable#TextView_inputType}
 * attribute. For example, for plain text input set inputType to "text":
 * <p>
 * <pre>
 * &lt;EditText
 *     android:id="@+id/plain_text_input"
 *     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 *     android:layout_width="match_parent"
 *     android:inputType="text"/&gt;</pre>
 *
 * Choosing the input type configures the keyboard type that is shown, acceptable characters,
 * and appearance of the edit text.
 * For example, if you want to accept a secret number, like a unique pin or serial number,
 * you can set inputType to "numericPassword".
 * An inputType of "numericPassword" results in an edit text that accepts numbers only,
 * shows a numeric keyboard when focused, and masks the text that is entered for privacy.
 * <p>
 * See the <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/ui/controls/text.html">Text Fields</a>
 * guide for examples of other
 * {@link android.R.styleable#TextView_inputType} settings.
 * </p>
 * <p>You also can receive callbacks as a user changes text by
 * adding a {@link android.text.TextWatcher} to the edit text.
 * This is useful when you want to add auto-save functionality as changes are made,
 * or validate the format of user input, for example.
 * You add a text watcher using the {@link TextView#addTextChangedListener} method.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This widget does not support auto-sizing text.
 * <p>
 * <b>XML attributes</b>

 * See {@link android.R.styleable#EditText EditText Attributes},
 * {@link android.R.styleable#TextView TextView Attributes},
 * {@link android.R.styleable#View View Attributes}
