I am trying to implement chips inside input field that beside chips can accept free text using library splitwise/TokenAutoComplete
. One chip is @mention
that shows user name.
User can enter sign @
and after that popup will show and than user selects user from list. The @
sign just triggers API call that fetches new data and updates adapter. After selecting user from list, chip will appear without @
sign, just chip with name. Also user can enter some free text and after that if he wants to mention another user he just enters @
and choose other user from list.
For example: user enters "Hello @mark and @paul", result should be "Hello Marc
and Paul
".
This works fine, but the problem is when i try to delete chips with backspace. I got exception:

I don't know how to fix it, and what is causing this exception.
Here is my implementation of Tokenizer
:
class UsernameTokenizer implements MultiAutoCompleteTextView.Tokenizer {
@Override
public CharSequence terminateToken(CharSequence text) {
int i = text.length();
while (i > 0 && text.charAt(i - 1) == ' ') {
i--;
}
if (text instanceof Spanned) {
SpannableString sp = new SpannableString(text + " ");
TextUtils.copySpansFrom((Spanned) text, 0, text.length(), Object.class, sp, 0);
return sp;
} else {
return text + " ";
}
}
@Override
public int findTokenStart(CharSequence text, int cursor) {
int i = cursor - 1;
while (i > 0 && text.charAt(i) != '@') {
i--;
}
if (i < 1 || text.charAt(i) != '@') {
return cursor;
}
return i;
}
@Override
public int findTokenEnd(CharSequence text, int cursor) {
int i = cursor;
int len = text.length();
while (i < len) {
if (text.charAt(i) == ' ') {
return i;
} else {
i++;
}
}
return len;
}
}
