How can I also make enter add input text in edittext to my listview? On top of the created add button

Question

I have a button "add" which adds input text from the editText into a listview below. However, can I make it possible to add text to the created list by simply pressing enter? If so, how can i do that in a simple manner?

Name=edittext, list =listview

@Override
        public void onClick(View view) {

            String name = Name.getText().toString();
            if (Name.length() > 0) {
                list.add(name);
                adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
        }

Quoted from : https://www.stackoverflow.com/a/6832095
Here is what you need to do to capture Enter event on editText :

final EditText edittext = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edittext);
edittext.setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener() {
    public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
        // If the event is a key-down event on the "enter" button
        if ((event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) &&
            (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) {
          // Perform action on key press
          Toast.makeText(HelloFormStuff.this, edittext.getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
          return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
});

You need to overwrite your dispatchKeyEvent something like this

@Override
public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent e) {
if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER) {
    Toast.makeText(UITestsActivity.this,
               "YOU CLICKED ENTER KEY",
                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        return true;
    }
    return super.dispatchKeyEvent(e);
};

Too long for a comment, therefore adding an answer. Building over previous answer, to achieve your function use this code:

import android.app.LauncherActivity;
