How to detect links in programmatically created TextView

Question

I've programmatically created TextView and then set data in it. But I'm not able to detect the links inside the data.

This is the code:

TextView dataView = new TextView(this);
dataView.setLayoutParams(dataParams);
dataView.setText("www.google.com");

I've tried with the : dataView.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance()); and

dataView.setLinksClickable(true);

but it doesn't works for me.

It will be great if anyone can help me here. Thanks in advance.

Try this

    Linkify.addLinks(dataView, Linkify.WEB_URLS);
    dataView.setLinksClickable(true);

Try This:

dataView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

  @Override
  public void onClick(View v) {
    TextView tv = (TextView)v;
    String link = tv.getText().toString();
  }

};);

TextView dataView = new TextView(this);
       dataView.setLayoutParams(dataParams);
       dataView.setText( Html.fromHtml("<b><a style='text-color:white;' href='"+"http://www.google.com"+"'>Google</a></b>"));
       dataView. setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
