Android editText max limit

Question

after I set the maximum character limit for editText using InputFilter.LengthFilter, is there a way to get editText to respond to onTextChanged after reaching the maximum number of characters? if not, is there an easy way to set the maximum number of characters in editText and still respond to the onTextChanged event? Thanks

In the XML itself for EditText, specify the following attribute:

  android:maxLength="20"
