    Comment on it

    It is very common that the Android's Edit text needs to clear all filled data in one hit, rather than clearing every single text using keyboard's 'X' button.

    It is a good practice that enable user to clear all the text using Edit Text drawable.

    public class ClearEdit extends AppCompatAutoCompleteTextView implements View.OnTouchListener, View.OnFocusChangeListener, TextWatcher {
        private Drawable clrIcon;
        private OnFocusChangeListener mOnFocusChangeListener;
        private OnTouchListener mOnTouchListener;
    
    
        public ClearEdit(final Context context) {
            super(context);
            init(context);
        }
    
        public ClearEdit(final Context context, final AttributeSet attrs) {
            super(context, attrs);
            init(context);
        }
    
        public ClearEdit(final Context context, final AttributeSet attrs, final int defStyleAttr) {
            super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
            init(context);
        }
    
        @Override
        public void setOnFocusChangeListener(OnFocusChangeListener onFocusChangeListener) {
            mOnFocusChangeListener = onFocusChangeListener;
        }
    
        @Override
        public void setOnTouchListener(OnTouchListener onTouchListener) {
            mOnTouchListener = onTouchListener;
        }
    
        private void setClearIconVisible(final boolean visible) {
            clrIcon.setVisible(visible, false);
            final Drawable[] compoundDrawables = getCompoundDrawables();
            setCompoundDrawables(
                    compoundDrawables[0],
                    compoundDrawables[1],
                    visible ? clrIcon : null,
                    compoundDrawables[3]);
        }
    
        private void init(final Context context) {
            // add your drawable here
            final Drawable drawable = ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, R.drawable.abc_ic_clear_mtrl_alpha);
            final Drawable wrappedDrawable = DrawableCompat.wrap(drawable); //Wrap the drawable so that it can be tinted pre Lollipop
            DrawableCompat.setTint(wrappedDrawable, getCurrentHintTextColor());
            clrIcon = wrappedDrawable;
            clrIcon.setBounds(0, 0, clrIcon.getIntrinsicHeight(), clrIcon.getIntrinsicHeight());
            setClearIconVisible(false);
            super.setOnTouchListener(this);
            super.setOnFocusChangeListener(this);
            addTextChangedListener(this);
        }
        @Override
        public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
    
            if (hasFocus) {
                setClearIconVisible(getText().length() > 0);
            } else {
                setClearIconVisible(false);
            }
    
    
    
    
    
            if (mOnFocusChangeListener != null) {
                mOnFocusChangeListener.onFocusChange(v, hasFocus);
            }
        }
    
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            final int x = (int) event.getX();
            if (clrIcon.isVisible() && x > getWidth() - getPaddingRight() - clrIcon.getIntrinsicWidth()) {
                if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
                    setText("");
                }
                return true;
            }
            return mOnTouchListener != null && mOnTouchListener.onTouch(v, event);
        }
    
        @Override
        public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
    
        }
    
        @Override
        public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
    
        }
    
        @Override
        public void onTextChanged(CharSequence text, int start, int lengthBefore, int lengthAfter) {
            if (isFocused()) {
                setClearIconVisible(text.length() > 0);
            }
        }
    }
