public interface NoCopySpan

android.text.NoCopySpan

Known indirect subclasses AbsListView, ExpandableListView, GridView, ListView, MultiTapKeyListener, NoCopySpan.Concrete, PasswordTransformationMethod, PhoneNumberFormattingTextWatcher, SpanWatcher, TextKeyListener, TextWatcher AbsListView Base class that can be used to implement virtualized lists of items.  ExpandableListView A view that shows items in a vertically scrolling two-level list.  GridView A view that shows items in two-dimensional scrolling grid.  ListView Displays a vertically-scrollable collection of views, where each view is positioned immediately below the previous view in the list.  MultiTapKeyListener This is the standard key listener for alphabetic input on 12-key keyboards.  NoCopySpan.Concrete Convenience equivalent for when you would just want a new Object() for a span but want it to be no-copy.  PasswordTransformationMethod   PhoneNumberFormattingTextWatcher This class was deprecated in API level 35. This is a thin wrapper on a `libphonenumber` `AsYouTypeFormatter`; it is recommended to use that instead.  SpanWatcher When an object of this type is attached to a Spannable, its methods will be called to notify it that other markup objects have been added, changed, or removed.  TextKeyListener This is the key listener for typing normal text.  TextWatcher When an object of this type is attached to an Editable, its methods will be called when the text is changed.

This interface should be added to a span object that should not be copied into a new Spanned when performing a slice or copy operation on the original Spanned it was placed in.
