android keyboardview 清空,popupwindow - Android: KeyboardView doesn't appear above EditText - Stack Ov...

I'm trying to have an EditText and the possibility to display a keyboard at the bottom of the screen when the user taps the EditText. I'm aware of the InputMethodService and the SoftKeyboard example, but I can't use it in that fashion as my keyboard should only be available to this very EditText.

Furthermore, there should be a context menu, but that's not part of this question (I think).

I've read plenty of code fragments, but in many cases they contain methods that aren't available anymore (i.e., getViewInflate()) or are written in a context that I don't understand or can't translate into my code (mind that I'm a newbie regarding Android).

In most attempts I fail with this exception when I tap the EditText:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: width and height must be > 0

followed by a stack-trace that doesn't contain any of my classes. As you can see in the code below all sizes are set.

What you see below is the current status of the code (I removed some of the code and I hope it still makes sense). I also tried to use what's inside of handler.post() in the main thread, use the commented stuff instead of the handler.post() ...

What's not below is an attempt to use a RelativeLayout with the EditText and the KeyboardView in one layout-XML. There was a different exception, something like "invalid type 0x12" or something when creating the layout.

It just doesn't work or I just don't know how to do it. Can anyone please guide me through this? Please let me know if something is missing.
