Determines the minimum type that getText() will return. The default is "normal". Note that EditText and LogTextBox always return Editable, even if you specify something less powerful here.
1. Create an Android project, if you don't already have one.
2. Add a TextView in your main.xml file.
3. In the main.xml file, add the code below.
<TextView
...
android:bufferType = "normal"
/>
4. All options
normal - Can return any CharSequence, possibly a Spanned one if the source text was Spanned.
spannable - Can only return Spannable.
editable - Can only return Spannable and Editable.
5. Compile and run!
