android - How to make links in a TextView clickable?

itemprop="text">

I have the following TextView defined:

            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/txtCredits"
 android:autoLink="web"
            android:id="@+id/infoTxtCredits"

            android:layout_centerInParent="true"

            android:linksClickable="true">

where
@string/txtCredits is a string resource that contains
Link
text.

Android is
highlighting the links in the TextView, but they do not respond to clicks. Can someone
tell me what I'm doing wrong? Do I have to set an onClickListener for the TextView in my
activity for something as simple as this?

Looks
like it has to do with the way I define my string resource.
This does not
work:

            name="txtCredits">            href="http://www.google.com">Google

But
this does:

            name="txtCredits">www.google.com

Which
is a bummer because I would much rather show a text link than show the full URL.

Answer

Buried in the API demos I found the solution
to my
problem:

Link.java:

            // text2 has links specified by putting  tags in the string
 //
            resource. By default these links will appear but not
 // respond to user
            input. To make them active, you need to
 // call setMovementMethod() on the
            TextView object.

 TextView t2 = (TextView)
            findViewById(R.id.text2);

            t2.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());

I
removed most of the attributes on my TextView to match what was in the
demo.

            android:id="@+id/text2"
 android:layout_width="wrap_content"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"

            android:text="@string/txtCredits"/>

That
solved it. Pretty difficult to uncover and
fix.

Important:
Don't forget to remove autoLink="web" if you are calling
setMovementMethod().
