Snackbar with API 21
With the new Design Support Library you can use the official SnackBar Widget.
Just add this dependency to your app -> build.gradle
:
implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'
And use something like:
Snackbar.make(view, "Snackbar", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Full Example, In Kotlin
val fab = findViewById(R.id.btn_signin) as Button
fab.setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener { view ->
Snackbar.make(view, "FloatingActionButton is clicked", Snackbar.LENGTH_INDEFINITE)
.setAction("Action", null).show()
})
You should try to use Android Studio, because the ADT plugin for Eclipse is no longer in active development.
In Android Studio, you just need to add a line compile 'com.nispok:snackbar:2.6.1'
in your build.gradle
dependencies, such that
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
compile 'com.nispok:snackbar:2.6.1'
}
That's it.
If you are facing "not resolved to a type" issue in Eclipse for Snackbar, this worked for me.
Right click on Project->BuildPath->Configure Buildpath Click on Libraries Tab and then click on Add external Libraries.
Select {path of adt}/sdk/extras/android/support/design/libs Select android-support-design.jar, Click Open to add this library.
Click Ok.
