Problem 1
I have a Navigation Drawer and most of my fragment transactions happens from here.
So say I have 4 Items in my drawer and I am doing the transaction from all of them. So if I am at the fragment [A] and now I click on the fragment [B], I need to come back to the previous fragment i.e. [A]. But if I keep clicking on the Item B of the navigation drawer that opens the fragment [B], I keep adding it to the backstack and when I press the back button, I am still at the same fragment.
Problem 2
How do I achieve the Clear Top behavior that is used for the intents for the fragments. As intents have the power to clear the activities from the stack from the top only, I want to achieve the same behavior.
Problem 1 & 2 solution Idea:
Create an Interface say FragmentInstanceHandler
public interface FragmentInstanceHandler {
public void openFragment(Fragment fragment, String fragmentTag);
}
Create a BaseFragment like below and extend this to all your Fragment classes:
public BaseFragment extends Fragment {
public FragmentInstanceHandler fragmentInstanceHandler;
public void setFragmentInstanceHandler(FragmentInstanceHandler fragmentInstanceHandler) {
this.fragmentInstanceHandler = fragmentInstanceHandler;
}
}
Implement the FragmentInstanceHandler interface to the Activity in which you are going to open all the Fragments. Let's say Activity is MainActivity:
public MainActivity extends Activity implements FragmentInstanceHandler {
private BaseFragment currentFragment;
#Override
public void openFragment(BaseFragment fragment, String fragmentTag) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment oldFragmentInstance = fragmentManager .findFragmentByTag(fragmentTag);
boolean fragmentPopped = fragmentManager.popBackStackImmediate (fragmentTag, 0);
if (!fragmentPopped && oldFragmentInstance == null) {
fragment.setFragmentInstanceHandler(this);
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.container, fragment, fragmentTag);
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(fragmentTag);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
currentFragment = fragment;
} else if(fragmentPopped ){
currentFragment = oldFragmentInstance;
}
if(mDrawerLayout!= null)
mDrawerLayout.closeDrawers();
}
}
Now whenever you want to open a new Fragment even from any other Fragment you can call method like below, It is advised to provide new tag if you want to have new instance of same Fragment:
fragmentInstanceHandler.openFragment(new MyFragment(), "FragmentNewInstance");
You can tweak FragmentInstanceHandlerto add your own method to replace the current Fragment instead of adding. Above solution just gives you an idea how you can acheive your solution by putting and mananging all your code from one place.

Popbackstack is working fine when all the fragments in the sequence are added in the backstack but isnt working when one of the transactions is not added in the backstack.
Here is my navigation:
1.Replace fragment to load home fragment. This transaction not added to backstack.
Replace fragment to load login fragment. This transaction is added to backstack.
3.Replace fragment to load loggedin fragment. This transaction is not added to backstack.
Now, when i press back button once nothing happens. Whereas ideally it should go to the home fragment from logged in fragment.
Here is my onbackpressed method in main activity:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
if(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount()>0)
{
FragmentManager.BackStackEntry backStackEntry = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryAt(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() - 1);
String str = backStackEntry.getName();
FragmentManager fm=getSupportFragmentManager();
//getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStackImmediate();
fm.popBackStack(str, FragmentManager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
}
else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
popBackstack only 'pop' what is in the backstack.
Since you haven't add the transaction when replacing the LoginFragment by the LoggedInFragment when you press back:
the LoggedInFragment remains,
the LogInFragment is popped
the HomeFragment is displayed
But because the LoggedInFragment as been added after the HomeFragment, the HomeFragment is displayed underneath it. So you can't see it as hidden by the LoggedInFragment.
One solution is to add the transaction to the back stack when you replace the LogInFragment by the LoggedInFragment.
Then in onBackPressed you test if the current fragment is the LoggedInFragment. If it's the case you pop the back stack up to HomeFragment (not inclusive). Like that both LoggedInFragment and LogInFragment will be pop.
EDIT
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
FragmentManager manager = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment fragment = manager.findFragmentById(R.id.my_fragment_container);
// If there is something in the back stack AND the current fragment is the LoggedInFragment
if (manager.getBackStackEntryCount() > 0
&& fragment instanceof LoggedInFragment) {
manager.popBackStack(HomeFragment.class.getSimpleName(), 0);
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
In order to retrieve the HomeFragment by name you need to tag your transaction when you replace the current fragment by the HomeFragment. Generally I tag all transactions with the fragment's class simple name so like that I can retried any fragment:
transaction.replace(R.id.my_fragment_container, fragment, fragment.getClass().getSimpleName());
Eselfar's explanation of the problem is correct, but the code he provided wasn't generic enough for me.
I (hopefully) resolved this issue in a general case by the following code:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
Fragment currentFragment = getCurrentFragment();
if (mFragmentManager.getBackStackEntryCount() > 0) {
// In a normal world, just popping back stack would be sufficient, but since android
// is not normal, a call to popBackStack can leave the popped fragment on screen.
// Therefore, we start with manual removal of the current fragment.
removeCurrentFragment();
mFragmentManager.popBackStack();
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
private Fragment getCurrentFragment() {
return mFragmentManager.findFragmentById(getContentFrameId());
}
private void removeCurrentFragment() {
FragmentTransaction ft = mFragmentManager.beginTransaction();
ft.remove(getCurrentFragment());
ft.commit();
// not sure it is needed; will keep it as a reminder to myself if there will be problems
// mFragmentManager.executePendingTransactions();
}
I have done many programs, where I have implemented multiple Fragments inside a Single Activity, but not when using Single Activity to host multiple Fragments as Tabs and then on Tap show another Fragments...
Using MaterialViewPager library, in which I am calling different different Fragments to show views in their respective Tabs.
Like For the First Tab, I am using two Fragments, where
In First Fragment, I am using RecyclerView... to show list of Menus.
And in Second Fragment, I am using RecyclerView... to show list of Items under particular Menu.
So here my question is How to call Fragment from Fragment.
mRecyclerView.addOnItemTouchListener(new RecyclerItemClickListener(getActivity(), mRecyclerView ,new RecyclerItemClickListener.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(View view, int position) {
Value value = valueList.get(position);
List<Learning> learning = value.getLearning();
// using when putting "item" data into same recyclerview
// but on back press just exiting, not showing list of Menus again
/**
learningAdapter = new LearningAdapter(learning, R.layout.card_learning, getActivity());
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(learningAdapter);
**/
ItemFragment fragment = new ItemFragment();
replaceFragment(fragment);
}
Method replaceFragment
public void replaceFragment(Fragment someFragment) {
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
// using Fragment not Activity, so where can I use frame_container in xml
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_container, someFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
}
you can have a callback interface that is implemented by the activity which hosts these two fragments. Fragment A will use the call back to notify the activity to replace A with fragment B. Depending on your need, you can pass parameters across through the callback method itself.
Your callback interface:
public interface YourCallback {
public void methodWhichReplacesFragmentAwithB(params...);
}
Your Activity hosting fragments:
public class YourActivity extends ... implements YourCallback {
..
..
#Override
public void methodWhichReplacesFragmentAwithB(params...) {
//insert replace fragment code here
}
}
Your fragment will have a callback object, YourCallback callbackObj;. This callback object can be initialised using the activity (pass as this from activity) itself since the activity has the implementation of the interface. Now, you can use
callbackObj.methodWhichReplacesFragmentAwithB(actual_params...);
to replace the fragment. This callback interface can be exploited for other communications to parent Activity as well as other fragment hosted in that activity.
To replace fragment,
FragmentTransaction transaction = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_container, someFragment).addToBackStack("null").commit();
You can try this:
YourFragment fragment = new YourFragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = ((AppCompatActivity) mContext).getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame, fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
There is One option which i have been using from long time before. I will added the solution with clear example.
So you want to pass the value from fragment A to fragment B
So, here what you want to do is, you have pass the value through the activity.
1) you pass the value from fragment A to activity
2) then activity to fragment B
Step 1: first create an Interface Like below in fragment A
public interface HomePage {
void onHomeButtonsClicked(String clickedButton);
}
public void setOnHomeButtonClicked(HomePage homePage) {
this.homePage = homePage;
}
Step 2: then create the instance like below in Activity. where fragment created in PagerAdapter
((FragmentA) fragment).setOnHomeButtonClicked(new FragmentA.HomePage() {
#Override
public void onHomeButtonsClicked(String buttonClicked) {
pageSelected.onHomeButtonsClicked(selectedPage);
}
}
});
Step 3: then create the interface in Activity like below.
public interface PageSelected {
void onHomeButtonsClicked(String clickedButton);
}
public void setOnHomeButtonClicked(PageSelected pageSelected) {
this.pageSelected = pageSelected;
}
step 3: then add the following method in fragment B in onCreateView or onResume()
((MainActivity) getActivity()).setOnHomeButtonClicked(new MainActivity.PageSelected() {
#Override
public void onHomeButtonsClicked(String clickedButton) {
//fragment B received the value here
}
});
Step 5: finally add the line in fragment A in button click or where you want to pass the value.
homePage.onHomeButtonsClicked("Some String , by this code it is in String. you can change in your own data type");
You can rise your question if you face any difficulties.
I have 2 Activites A & B, In Activity A I managed fragment back stack but in one case as like below:
I have 4 fragments in Activity going from fragment 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 then from 4th fragment I'm going to Activity B now what i want is on press of back button fragment 4 of Activity should be opened and then on back fragment 3 and so on.
I'm using following function to replace the fragment and manage back stack
private void changeFragment(Fragment fragment) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.popBackStack(null, FragmentManager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.act_home_fl_container, fragment).commit();
}
On back press
boolean isPopFragment = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0 ? true : false;
if (isPopFragment) {
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack();
}
I got success upto here but when I'm going to Activity B from 4th fragment and coming back to Activity A, I'm not able to manage back stack of fragments of Activity A.
I'm not having any how to start with it.
you can override onBackPressed inside your activities, check which fragment is on top and decide what to do as you wish:
#Override
public void onBackPressed()
{
// code here
super.onBackPressed(); // check if you need this, depends on your needs
}
Use this code to change fragment
public static void addFragment( final Fragment newFragment, final Fragment hideFragment) {
final FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
final FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.hide(hideFragment);
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.activity_home_container, newFragment, newFragment.getClass().getSimpleName());
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(hideFragment.getClass().getSimpleName());
fragmentTransaction.commitAllowingStateLoss();
}
newFragment "Fragment you want to add"
hideFragment "Fragment which is on container"
just use addToBackStack(tag_name) before commit
You can add en extension function in kotlin
fun AppCompatActivity.replaceFragment(containerId: Int, fragment: Fragment) =
supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.replace(containerId, fragment, fragment.javaClass.name)
.addToBackStack(fragment.javaClass.name).commit()
i have app like this
one activity and inside it >
fragment a (loaded when run app also from menu can open it )
fragment b (open it from just menu)
fragment c (can open it from fragment a and also can open it from menu)
also inside fragment c there are 4 child fragments
in main activity(using navigation drawer as source) i call fragment a in oncreate like this
FragmentManager fragmentManager=getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment_place,new First_Fragment()).addToBackStack("First").commit();
my problem is how to control back button to always back to fragment a and when fragment a is open close app
i was using addToBackStack(null) but is not what i want because will show all history of fragments that i opened
When adding fragment a to the back stack "addToBackStack(String name)" pass in a name.
Then listen for on back presses in your fragments
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
fm.addOnBackStackChangedListener(new OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
}
});
make sure to stop listening when each fragment is not being shown.
Then you can pop back to the named fragment added to the back stack
FragmentManager fm = getActivity()
.getSupportFragmentManager();
fm.popBackStack ("name", FragmentManager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
Make sure the rest of your fragment transactions are not added to the back stack. This should give you the behavior you want.
addToBackStack(String tag) is used to add the fragment to backstack and it contains the string as parameter. This parameter can be null or have some value.
If you pass null, it will add your fragment to backstack with tag null. addToBackStack(null) doesn't mean that your fragment is not added to backstack.
If you want your fragment will not be added to backstack, then just delete this line.
If you are adding your fragment to backstack and want it to be visible onBackPressed, then you can use
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStackImmediate(/* Fragment TAG */,0);
CODE:- Try the below code and let me know.
Copy the below function in your main Activity.
/**
* function to show the fragment
*
* #param name fragment to be shown
* #param tag fragment tag
*/
public void showFragment(Fragment name, String tag) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
// check if the fragment is in back stack
boolean fragmentPopped = fragmentManager.popBackStackImmediate(tag, 0);
if (fragmentPopped) {
// fragment is pop from backStack
} else {
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, name, tag);
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(tag);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}}
Show fragment using the below code.
showFragment(yourFragment, yourFragmentTag);
In mainActivity onBackPressed.
#override
public void onBackPressed(){
FragmentTransaction fts = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
if (fragmentManager.getBackStackEntryCount() >= 2) {
// always show your fragment a here
showFragment(new FragmentA(), FragmentA.class.getSimpleName());
} else {
// finish your activity
}
}
I am using Fragment activity and a number of fragments to get added and poped out on back press.
Supposed I am adding Fragment B from Fragment A. The title of action bar that I set in A changes by navigating to B; but it is not restoring to A when I pop the fragment B out of the fragment stack as onResume of fragment is not being called.
I am using the code:
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().add(R.id.container, fragmentToReplace, tag).addToBackStack(tag).commit();
and to pop out the last fragment:
fragmentManager.popBackStack();
How to manage this. Please suggest.
You can use onBackStackChanged listener which will be called whenever a fragment is popped back. To add the listener use this:
getFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(this);
In Override function, check the fragment which is popped and according to it you can change the actionbar title:
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
//Check the fragment from the FrameLayout Container R.id.container
// Depending on the Fragment you can change the Title
setTitle("xyz");
}
Create new class in your package and extend with Fragment says TestFragment and create abstract method in it
abstract public String getTitle();
than extend your every fragment with TestFragment and override getTitle() in your fragments.
public String getTitle(){
return "YOUR_FRAGMENT_NAME";
}
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(
new OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
Fragment fragment = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.content_frame);
this.setTitle(fragment.getTitle());
}
});
