How to get EditText Value as integer and put into TextView without button OnClick method ?

Courses Plus Student 189 PointsThanks Peter, I Tried but it gives me an error :Cannot resolve method '.getString();'
and then I tried this:
mCurrentIDV = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.twEditTextIDV);
EditText mCubicCapacity = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.twEditTextCC);
EditText mOdDiscount = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.percentageOwnDamageEditText);
EditText mAgeDiscount = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.twAgDis);
final TextView mAmtLabel = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.netPremiumAmt);
mCurrentIDVString = mCurrentIDV.getText().toString();
int currentIDV = Integer.parseInt(mCurrentIDVString);
mAmtLabel.setText(currentIDV);

I told you to do .getString(), but it's getText().toString(), that was my mistake.
Anyway, does the code run now?

Courses Plus Student 189 PointsNo, Not yet now it gives me another error Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid int: at java.lang.Integer.invalidInt(Integer.java:138) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:358) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:334) at com.bimahelpline.android.ui.TwoWheeler.onCreate(TwoWheeler.java:41)

2,682 PointsHello, Suppose you have declared: private EditText mNumber; You can then declare a String variable, like this: private String mNumberString; You can get the value from the EditText as a String: On the onCreate method, do:
mNumber = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.mNumber);
// Comment, you need to have added your EditText in your xml layout file for the activity for the previous line to //work // To get the String from the EditText do: mNumberString = mNumber.getString(); //Then you can parse this String to an Integer: int value = Integer.parseInt(mNumberString);
I hope this helps.
