An android toast provides feedback to the users about the operation being performed by them. It displays the message regarding the status of operation initiated by the user.
In Android development, a “toast” refers to a short-lived message that appears on the screen, typically near the bottom, to provide users with brief information or feedback about an operation. It is a simple and non-intrusive way to display notifications or alerts.
In Android programming, you can create a toast using the Toast
class. Here’s a simple example in Java:
// Import the necessary classes
import android.content.Context;
import android.widget.Toast;
// Inside your activity or fragment codeContext context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence text = “This is a toast message!”;
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
toast.show();
In this example, getApplicationContext()
is used to get the application context, and you can customize the message ("This is a toast message!"
), duration, and other parameters based on your requirements. The show()
method is then called to display the toast on the screen.
