Kotlin: How to get and set a text to TextView in Android using Kotlin?

just add below line and access direct xml object

import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        txt_HelloWorld.text = "abc"
    }

replace activity_main according to your XML name

to set text in kotlin

textview.text = "write here"

In kotlin don't use getters and setters as like in java.The correct format of the kotlin is given below.

val textView: TextView = findViewById(R.id.android_text) as TextView
textView.setOnClickListener {
    textView.text = getString(R.string.name)
}

To get the values from the Textview we have to use this method

 val str: String = textView.text.toString()

 println("the value is $str")
