if (!Pattern.matches("pattern",(input.getText().toString())))

I want to check pattern for input and my input can have ".", "/", space, and A to z like these cases:

• ...Atoz
• Atoz....
• Atoz...Atoz
• Atoz/Atoz

What should I do with 开发者_开发技巧my "pattern"?

in your last example there is a slash (/) , what's it's implication?

otherwise: [A-Za-z.]+ should to it , it will work if there is only A-z and . (dot) characters .
