/**
 * Represents a push-button widget. Push-buttons can be
 * pressed, or clicked, by the user to perform an action.

 * <p>A typical use of a push-button in an activity would be the following:
 * </p>
 * A user interface element the user can tap or click to perform an action.
 *
 * <p>To display a button in an activity, add a button to the activity's layout XML file:</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;Button
 *     android:id="@+id/button_id"
 *     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 *     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 *     android:text="@string/self_destruct" /&gt;</pre>
 *
 * <p>To specify an action when the button is pressed, set a click
 * listener on the button object in the corresponding activity code:</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * public class MyActivity extends Activity {
 *     protected void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
 *         super.onCreate(icicle);
 *     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 *         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 *
 *         setContentView(R.layout.content_layout_id);
 *
 *         final Button button = findViewById(R.id.button_id);
 *         button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
 *             public void onClick(View v) {
 *                 // Perform action on click
 *                 // Code here executes on main thread after user presses button
 *             }
 *         });
 *     }
 * }</pre>
 *
 * <p>However, instead of applying an {@link android.view.View.OnClickListener OnClickListener} to
 * the button in your activity, you can assign a method to your button in the XML layout,
 * using the {@link android.R.attr#onClick android:onClick} attribute. For example:</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;Button
 *     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
 *     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 *     android:text="@string/self_destruct"
 *     android:onClick="selfDestruct" /&gt;</pre>
 *
 * <p>Now, when a user clicks the button, the Android system calls the activity's {@code
 * selfDestruct(View)} method. In order for this to work, the method must be public and accept
 * a {@link android.view.View} as its only parameter. For example:</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * public void selfDestruct(View view) {
 *     // Kabloey
 * }</pre>
 *
 * <p>The {@link android.view.View} passed into the method is a reference to the widget
 * that was clicked.</p>
 * <p>The above snippet creates an instance of {@link View.OnClickListener} and wires
 * the listener to the button using
 * {@link #setOnClickListener setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener)}.
 * As a result, the system executes the code you write in {@code onClick(View)} after the
 * user presses the button.</p>
 *
 * <h3>Button style</h3>
 * <p class="note">The system executes the code in {@code onClick} on the
 * <a href="{@docRoot}guide/components/processes-and-threads.html#Threads">main thread</a>.
 * This means your onClick code must execute quickly to avoid delaying your app's response
 * to further user actions.  See
 * <a href="{@docRoot}training/articles/perf-anr.html">Keeping Your App Responsive</a>
 * for more details.</p>
 *
 * <p>Every Button is styled using the system's default button background, which is often different
 * from one device to another and from one version of the platform to another. If you're not
 * satisfied with the default button style and want to customize it to match the design of your
 * application, then you can replace the button's background image with a <a
 * href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/resources/drawable-resource.html#StateList">state list drawable</a>.
 * A state list drawable is a drawable resource defined in XML that changes its image based on
 * the current state of the button. Once you've defined a state list drawable in XML, you can apply
 * it to your Button with the {@link android.R.attr#background android:background}
 * attribute. For more information and an example, see <a
 * href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/resources/drawable-resource.html#StateList">State List
 * Drawable</a>.</p>
 *
 * <p>See the <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/ui/controls/button.html">Buttons</a>
 * <p>Every button is styled using the system's default button background, which is often
 * different from one version of the platform to another. If you are not satisfied with the
 * default button style, you can customize it. For more details and code samples, see the
 * <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/ui/controls/button.html#Style">Styling Your Button</a>
 * guide.</p>
