您可以动态地更改TextView的属性。如果你将XML属性android:password设置为真，视图将显示点，如果你设置为假，文本显示。

使用setTransformationMethod方法，您应该能够从代码中更改此属性。(免责声明:我没有测试过该方法在视图显示后是否仍然有效。如果你遇到问题，请给我留下评论，让我知道。)

完整的示例代码将是

yourTextView.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod());

隐藏密码。要显示密码，您可以设置一个现有的转换方法，或者实现一个空的TransformationMethod，它对输入文本不做任何操作。

yourTextView.setTransformationMethod(new DoNothingTransformation());

private int passwordNotVisible=1; 
  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 showPassword = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.show_password);
    showPassword.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            EditText paswword = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Password);
            if (passwordNotVisible == 1) {
                paswword.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_VISIBLE_PASSWORD);
                passwordNotVisible = 0;
            } else {

                paswword.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD);
                passwordNotVisible = 1;
            }


            paswword.setSelection(paswword.length());

        }
    });
}

java代码

package com.example.root.sql2;

import android.annotation.SuppressLint;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton;
import android.support.design.widget.Snackbar;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatCheckBox;

public class password extends AppCompatActivity {


    EditText password;
    CheckBox show_hide_password;

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

                    password.setTransformationMethod(PasswordTransformationMethod.getInstance());

                }else{
                    // show password
                    password.setTransformationMethod(HideReturnsTransformationMethod.getInstance());
                }
            }

    } // end show_hide_pass




    public void findViewById(){ //  find ids ui and
        password = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edtPass);
        show_hide_password = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.showPassword);
    }//end findViewById



}// end class

试试这个:

passwordEditText.setInputType(1);

Or

passwordEditText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);

1 -创建一个选择器文件"show_password_selector.xml"

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/pwd_hide"
          android:state_selected="true"/>
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/pwd_show"
          android:state_selected="false" />
 </selector>

2 -将“show_password_selector”文件放入imageview。

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/iv_pwd"
    android:layout_width="@dimen/_35sdp"
    android:layout_height="@dimen/_25sdp"
    android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/_15sdp"
    android:src="@drawable/show_password_selector" />

3 -把下面的代码在java文件。

iv_new_pwd.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        if (iv_new_pwd.isSelected()) {
            iv_new_pwd.setSelected(false);
            Log.d("mytag", "in case 1");
            edt_new_pwd.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);
        } else {
            Log.d("mytag", "in case 1");
            iv_new_pwd.setSelected(true);
            edt_new_pwd.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD);
        }
    }
});

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());
            }
