Android EditText onfocuschange is not working

Question

I'm new to Android programming. My following program does a simple Farenheit to Celsius conversion. If you enter values in a Farenheit EditText it will convert it into Celsius for every keystroke entered.

I'm getting the following errors, the Changes I make in Celsius edit text are not reflected in Fahrenheit.

07-29 01:59:21.189: E/AndroidRuntime(1390): java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid float: ""

Following is my MainActivity.java:

 public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    private EditText celsiusText;
    private EditText farenheitText;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        celsiusText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
        farenheitText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText2);
        celsiusText.requestFocus();
        celsiusText.setOnFocusChangeListener((OnFocusChangeListener) this);
        farenheitText.setOnFocusChangeListener((OnFocusChangeListener) this);
    }

    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {            
         TextWatcher watcher1 = new TextWatcher() {
             public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {

             }

             public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
                 // empty
             }

             public void onTextChanged(CharSequence S,int start,int before, int count) {
                 float inputValue;
                 if (!S.toString().equals("")) {
                     inputValue = Float.parseFloat(S.toString());
                     (findViewById(R.id.editText1)).setText(String
                               .valueOf(convertFahrenheitToCelsius(inputValue)));
                  } else {
                      (findViewById(R.id.editText1)).setText("");
                      return;
                  }
              }
          };

          TextWatcher watcher2 = new TextWatcher() {
               public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
                   // empty
               }

               public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
                   // empty
               }

               public void onTextChanged(CharSequence S,int start,int before, int count) {
                    float inputValue;
                    if (!S.toString().equals("")) {
                        inputValue = Float.parseFloat(S.toString());
                        (findViewById(R.id.editText2)).setText(String
                                .valueOf(convertCelsiusToFahrenheit(inputValue)));

                     } else {
                         (findViewById(R.id.editText2)).setText("");
                         return;
                     }
                }
            };

            if((v == findViewById(R.id.editText2)) && hasFocus) {
                farenheitText.addTextChangedListener(watcher1);
            } else if ((v == findViewById(R.id.editText1)) && hasFocus) {
                (findViewById(R.id.editText1)).setText("");
                celsiusText.addTextChangedListener(watcher2);
            }
      }

      //Converts to celsius
      private float convertFahrenheitToCelsius(float fahrenheit) {
          return ((fahrenheit - 32) * 5 / 9);
      }

      // Converts to fahrenheit
      private float convertCelsiusToFahrenheit(float celsius) {
           return ((celsius * 9) / 5) + 32;
      }

}

Answer 1

some times clearfocus() solves this problem. try to call editText1.clearfocus() in onCreate() method or other suitable places of code.
