Remarks

Called when the user tapped or clicked a text view. IMEs can't rely on this method being called because this was not part of the original IME protocol, so applications with custom text editing written before this method appeared will not call to inform the IME of this interaction.

This member is deprecated. The method may not be called for composite View that works as a giant "Canvas", which can host its own UI hierarchy and sub focus state. android.webkit.WebView is a good example. Application / IME developers should not rely on this method. If your goal is just being notified when an on-going input is interrupted, simply monitor #onFinishInput(). If your goal is to know what MotionEvent#getToolType(int) clicked on editor, use #onUpdateEditorToolType(int) instead.
