我也遇到过同样的问题，而且它很容易实现。

你所要做的就是在一个(com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout)和添加(app:passwordToggleEnabled="true")中包装你的EditText字段。

这将在EditText字段中显示眼睛，当您单击它时，密码将出现并在再次单击时消失。

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:textColorHint="#B9B8B8"
                app:passwordToggleEnabled="true">

                <EditText
                    android:id="@+id/register_password"
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_marginLeft="24dp"
                    android:layout_marginRight="44dp"
                    android:backgroundTint="#BEBEBE"
                    android:hint="Password"
                    android:inputType="textPassword"
                    android:padding="16dp"
                    android:textSize="18sp" />
            </com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

试试这个:

首先定义一个全局标志，如下所示:

private boolean isShowPassword = false;

并设置监听器处理点击显示和隐藏密码按钮:

imgPassword.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (isShowPassword) {
                    etPassword.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod());
                    imgPassword.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_eye_hide));
                    isShowPassword = false;
                }else{
                    etPassword.setTransformationMethod(null);
                    imgPassword.setImageDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_eye_show));
                    isShowPassword = true;
                }
            }
        });

根据这个来源，如果你已经将你的项目迁移到AndroidX，那么你可以替换

编译”com.android.support:设计:24.2.0”

与

实现“com.google.android.material:材料:1.0.0”

然后你所要做的就是把下面的代码放到你的布局文件中:

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:passwordToggleEnabled="true"
    android:hint="@string/hint_text">

  <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

关于材质TextInputLayout的更多信息可以在这里找到。

对于这个源码，建议从Android支持库迁移到AndroidX:

AndroidX is the open-source project that the Android team uses to develop, test, package, version and release libraries within Jetpack. AndroidX is a major improvement to the original Android Support Library. Like the Support Library, AndroidX ships separately from the Android OS and provides backwards-compatibility across Android releases. AndroidX fully replaces the Support Library by providing feature parity and new libraries. In addition AndroidX includes the following features: All packages in AndroidX live in a consistent namespace starting with the string androidx. The Support Library packages have been mapped into corresponding androidx.* packages. For a full mapping of all the old classes and build artifacts to the new ones, see the Package Refactoring page. Unlike the Support Library, AndroidX packages are separately maintained and updated. The androidx packages use strict Semantic Versioning starting with version 1.0.0. You can update AndroidX libraries in your project independently. All new Support Library development will occur in the AndroidX library. This includes maintenance of the original Support Library artifacts and introduction of new Jetpack components.

if (inputPassword.getTransformationMethod() == PasswordTransformationMethod.getInstance()) {
 //password is visible
                inputPassword.setTransformationMethod(HideReturnsTransformationMethod.getInstance());
            }
else if(inputPassword.getTransformationMethod() == HideReturnsTransformationMethod.getInstance()) {
 //password is hidden
                inputPassword.setTransformationMethod(PasswordTransformationMethod.getInstance());
            }

我可以添加ShowPassword / HidePassword代码，只需几行，在一个块中独立:

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    ...
    etPassword = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.password);
    etPassword.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod()); // Hide password initially

    checkBoxShowPwd = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkBoxShowPwd);
    checkBoxShowPwd.setText(getString(R.string.label_show_password)); // Hide initially, but prompting "Show Password"
    checkBoxShowPwd.setOnCheckedChangeListener( new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
        public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton arg0, boolean isChecked) {
            if (isChecked) {
                etPassword.setTransformationMethod(null); // Show password when box checked
                checkBoxShowPwd.setText(getString(R.string.label_hide_password)); // Prompting "Hide Password"
            } else {
                etPassword.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod()); // Hide password when box not checked
                checkBoxShowPwd.setText(getString(R.string.label_show_password)); // Prompting "Show Password"
            }
        }
    } );
    ...

这是我的工作。这绝对对你有帮助

showpass.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener() {

            @Override
            public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
                    if(!isChecked){

                    // show password
                    password_login.setTransformationMethod(PasswordTransformationMethod.getInstance());

                    Log.i("checker", "true");
                }

                else{
                    Log.i("checker", "false");

                     // hide password
    password_login.setTransformationMethod(HideReturnsTransformationMethod.getInstance());
                }

            }
        });
