onclicklistener - How to get out from onClick method for Button Listener in Android -

consider following code:

button add_product_button = (button) findviewbyid(r.id.add_product_button);     add_product_button.setonclicklistener(new view.onclicklistener() {         @override         public void onclick(view view) {              //before going further, check whether information provided or not             edittext item_title_text = (edittext) findviewbyid(r.id.item_title);             if(isempty(item_title_text)){                 break;             } 

i want 'break;' response not want proceed further (not executing rest code , out).

this alarm user insufficient information has been provided. how can achieve this?

i recommend disabling button if required information not there user isn't able click it. display message on whatever dialog/view inform user information required, or add string "(required)" after edittext hint.

button add_product_button = (button) findviewbyid(r.id.add_product_button); edittext item_title_text = (edittext) findviewbyid(r.id.item_title);  if(isempty(item_title_text)){     add_product_button.setenabled(false); } 

however, if need way described reason, answer how "get out", need return out of onclick method.

if(isempty(item_title_text)){     return; } 

before returning call method whatever want (your own method perhaps displays message user have not enough information).

if(isempty(item_title_text)){     notifyuserofemptyfield();     return; }
