Drawable x = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.x);
x.setBounds(0, 0, x.getIntrinsicWidth(), x.getIntrinsicHeight());
mEditText.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, x, null);

式中x为:

对于可绘制的资源，您可以使用标准的android图像:

例如:

android:background="@android:drawable/ic_menu_close_clear_cancel"

下面是kotlin中简单的完整解决方案。

整个布局就是你的搜索栏

<RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="35dp"
        android:layout_margin="10dp"
        android:background="@drawable/your_desired_drawable">

        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/search_et"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
            android:layout_toStartOf="@id/clear_btn"
            android:background="@null"
            android:hint="search..."
            android:imeOptions="actionSearch"
            android:inputType="text"
            android:maxLines="1"
            android:paddingStart="15dp"
            android:paddingEnd="10dp" />

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/clear_btn"
            android:layout_width="20dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true"
            android:layout_marginEnd="15dp"
            android:visibility="gone"
            android:src="@drawable/ic_baseline_clear_24"/>

    </RelativeLayout>

现在这是清除按钮的功能，粘贴这段代码在onCreate方法。

search_et.addTextChangedListener(object: TextWatcher {
            override fun beforeTextChanged(s:CharSequence, start:Int, count:Int, after:Int) {
            }
            override fun onTextChanged(s:CharSequence, start:Int, before:Int, count:Int) {
            }
            override fun afterTextChanged(s: Editable) {
                if (s.isNotEmpty()){
                    clear_btn.visibility = VISIBLE
                    clear_btn.setOnClickListener {
                        search_et.text.clear()
                    }
                }else{
                    clear_btn.visibility = GONE
                }
            }
        })

您可以使用这个代码片段和Jaydip回答多个按钮。在获得ET和按钮元素的引用后调用它。我使用了vececotr button，所以你必须将button元素更改为ImageButton:

private void setRemovableET(final EditText et, final ImageButton resetIB) {

        et.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
                if (hasFocus && et.getText().toString().length() > 0)
                    resetIB.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                else
                    resetIB.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
            }
        });

        resetIB.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                et.setText("");
                resetIB.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
            }
        });

        et.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
            @Override
            public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {}
            @Override
            public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,
                                          int count, int after) {
            }
            @Override
            public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,
                                      int before, int count) {
                if(s.length() != 0){
                    resetIB.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                }else{
                    resetIB.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
                }
            }
        });
    }

这是一个kotlin溶液。把这个助手方法放在某个kotlin文件中

fun EditText.setupClearButtonWithAction() {

    addTextChangedListener(object : TextWatcher {
        override fun afterTextChanged(editable: Editable?) {
            val clearIcon = if (editable?.isNotEmpty() == true) R.drawable.ic_clear else 0
            setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0, 0, clearIcon, 0)
        }

        override fun beforeTextChanged(s: CharSequence?, start: Int, count: Int, after: Int) = Unit
        override fun onTextChanged(s: CharSequence?, start: Int, before: Int, count: Int) = Unit
    })

    setOnTouchListener(View.OnTouchListener { _, event ->
        if (event.action == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
            if (event.rawX >= (this.right - this.compoundPaddingRight)) {
                this.setText("")
                return@OnTouchListener true
            }
        }
        return@OnTouchListener false
    })
}

然后像下面那样在onCreate方法中使用它，你应该很好

yourEditText.setupClearButtonWithAction()

顺便说一句，你必须添加R.drawable。Ic_clear或清除图标。这个来自谷歌- https://fonts.google.com/icons?selected=Material%20Icons%20Outlined%3Aclear%3A

Android的支持库中有一个SearchView类就是这样做的。(虽然不是从EditText派生的，所以必须使用一个SearchView。OnQueryTextListener代替TextWatcher)

在XML中像这样使用:

  <android.support.v7.widget.SearchView
            android:id="@+id/searchView"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:iconifiedByDefault="false"
            android:queryHint="@string/SearchHint"
            app:iconifiedByDefault="false"
            app:queryHint="@string/SearchHint" />
