xml中的简单方式：

android:maxLength="4"

如果您需要在xml编辑文本中设置4个字符，请使用

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/edtUserCode"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:maxLength="4"
    android:hint="Enter user code" />

EditText editText = new EditText(this);
int maxLength = 3;    
editText.setFilters(new InputFilter[] {new InputFilter.LengthFilter(maxLength)});

//Set Length filter. Restricting to 10 characters only
editText.setFilters(new InputFilter[]{new InputFilter.LengthFilter(MAX_LENGTH)});

//Allowing only upper case characters
editText.setFilters(new InputFilter[]{new InputFilter.AllCaps()});

//Attaching multiple filters
editText.setFilters(new InputFilter[]{new InputFilter.LengthFilter(MAX_LENGTH), new InputFilter.AllCaps()});

您可以在EditText中使用android:maxLength=“10”。（此处限制为最多10个字符）

这是一个自定义的EditText类，允许长度筛选器与其他筛选器一起使用。感谢Tim Gallagher的回答（如下）

import android.content.Context;
import android.text.InputFilter;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.EditText;


public class EditTextMultiFiltering extends EditText{

    public EditTextMultiFiltering(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public EditTextMultiFiltering(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public EditTextMultiFiltering(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
    }

    public void setMaxLength(int length) {
        InputFilter curFilters[];
        InputFilter.LengthFilter lengthFilter;
        int idx;

        lengthFilter = new InputFilter.LengthFilter(length);

        curFilters = this.getFilters();
        if (curFilters != null) {
            for (idx = 0; idx < curFilters.length; idx++) {
                if (curFilters[idx] instanceof InputFilter.LengthFilter) {
                    curFilters[idx] = lengthFilter;
                    return;
                }
            }

            // since the length filter was not part of the list, but
            // there are filters, then add the length filter
            InputFilter newFilters[] = new InputFilter[curFilters.length + 1];
            System.arraycopy(curFilters, 0, newFilters, 0, curFilters.length);
            newFilters[curFilters.length] = lengthFilter;
            this.setFilters(newFilters);
        } else {
            this.setFilters(new InputFilter[] { lengthFilter });
        }
    }
}
