我觉得我想回答这个问题，即使有一些好的答案，

根据文档TransformationMethod完成我们的任务

TransformationMethod TextView使用TransformationMethods来做一些事情，比如替换 字符的密码与点，或保持换行符 避免在单行文本字段中引起换行。

注意我使用黄油刀，但它是相同的，如果用户检查显示密码

@OnCheckedChanged(R.id.showpass)
    public void onChecked(boolean checked){
        if(checked){
            et_password.setTransformationMethod(null);
        }else {
            et_password.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod());
            
        }
       // cursor reset his position so we need set position to the end of text
        et_password.setSelection(et_password.getText().length());
    }

在XML中这样做

    <LinearLayout
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:layout_width="fill_parent"
          android:orientation="vertical"
          >
          <RelativeLayout
              android:id="@+id/REFReLayTellFriend"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"
              android:orientation="horizontal"
              >
          <EditText
              android:id="@+id/etpass1"
              android:layout_width="fill_parent"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"
              android:background="@android:color/transparent"
              android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
              android:bottomRightRadius="50dp"
              android:fontFamily="@font/frutiger"
              android:gravity="start"
              android:inputType="textPassword"
              android:hint="@string/regpass_pass1"
              android:padding="20dp"
              android:paddingBottom="10dp"
              android:textColor="#000000"
              android:textColorHint="#d3d3d3"
              android:textSize="14sp"
              android:topLeftRadius="10dp"
              android:topRightRadius="10dp"/>
              <ImageButton
                  android:id="@+id/imgshowhide1"
                  android:layout_width="40dp"
                  android:layout_height="20dp"
                  android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
                  android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
                  android:background="@drawable/showpass"
                  android:layout_alignRight="@+id/etpass1"/>
          </RelativeLayout>    

 boolean show=true;
 //on image click inside password do this
 if(show){
                imgshowhide2.setBackgroundResource(0);
                imgshowhide2.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.hide);
                etpass2.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_VISIBLE_PASSWORD);
                etpass2.setSelection(etpass2.getText().length());

                show=false;
            }else{
                imgshowhide2.setBackgroundResource(0);
                imgshowhide2.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.showpass);
                //etpass1.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT);
                etpass2.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT |
                        InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD);
                etpass2.setSelection(etpass2.getText().length());
                show=true;
            }

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"
            }
        }
    } );
    ...

使用复选框并相应地更改输入类型。

public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
    int start,end;
    Log.i("inside checkbox chnge",""+isChecked);
    if(!isChecked){
        start=passWordEditText.getSelectionStart();
        end=passWordEditText.getSelectionEnd();
        passWordEditText.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod());;
        passWordEditText.setSelection(start,end);
    }else{
        start=passWordEditText.getSelectionStart();
        end=passWordEditText.getSelectionEnd();
        passWordEditText.setTransformationMethod(null);
        passWordEditText.setSelection(start,end);
    }
}

似乎input_layout。isPasswordVisibilityToggleEnabled = true已弃用。在我的例子中，我在Kotlin中这样做:

input_edit_text.inputType = TYPE_CLASS_TEXT or TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD
input_layout.endIconMode = END_ICON_PASSWORD_TOGGLE

其中input_edit_text是com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText, input_layout是com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout。当然，你应该导入这些asl:

import android.text.InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT
import android.text.InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD
import com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout.END_ICON_PASSWORD_TOGGLE

My可以自定义图标提供的方法如下:

 input_layout.endIconDrawable = ...
 input_layout.setEndIconOnClickListener {  }
 input_layout.setEndIconOnLongClickListener(...)

我的Kotlin扩展。编写一次，随处使用

fun EditText.tooglePassWord() {
this.tag = !((this.tag ?: false) as Boolean)
this.inputType = if (this.tag as Boolean)
    InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD
else
    (InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT or InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD)

this.setSelection(this.length()) }

您可以将此方法保存在任何文件中，并在任何地方使用它 像这样使用它

ivShowPassword.click { etPassword.tooglePassWord() }

其中ivShowPassword是点击imageview(眼睛)和etPassword是编辑
