Android studio question: cannot resolve "nextLine() method.

Question

I am trying to use a java program I wrote in android studio. The program ran in java but android studio doesn't recognize the nextLine () method in the for loop to parse my input into 3 ints. Any tips would be appreciated.

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

Button addBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.addBtn);
addBtn.setOnClickListener (new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
EditText rawinput = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.rawinput);
TextView result = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.result);

List<Integer> arraynumbers = new ArrayList<>(); // creates an ArrayList called arraynumbers made of integers
for(String num: rawinput.nextLine().split("-")) {// for loop to take the numbers between "-" in rawinput
arraynumbers.add(Integer.parseInt(num)); // and add them to the ArrayList "arraynumbers" as Integers
}
// converts pair # to ccpt
if(arraynumbers.size() == 1) { // if there is only one int in arraynumbers then do this stuff
int a = (arraynumbers.get(0)); // user input of arraynumbers assigned to variable "a"
int px = (a % 150); // uses "a" +math to return pair number in bank & assign to variable "px"
double sx = (px - .5) / 6; // uses "px" +math to return slot # in double format &

Answer 1

You're treating a EditText like it is a Stream that returns a String. Instead use getText() which returns an Editable object that you can then get the string value from.

rawinput.getText().toString().split("-")

Thank you very much. That is what I was not seeing. I'm learning a lot trying to convert the program over to android studio, instead of just running it from my command line on the code playground. The links you gave showed exactly what I was missing. The program runs now and shows up on the phone!!!
