actionbar upnavigation from fragmentB to fragmentA

I'm trying to build with only fragments.
The App opens with a Activity blank that only has a ActionBar upon clicking the hamburger icon it opens a drawer that give you a menu option.
Upon clicking on one of the Menu Items it opens the First Fragment which has a Recycler/Card View. Upon clicking one of the Cards it opens a new fragment with more details of the selected cards.
Now the problem is the detail fragment shows home icon cause I enable setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true) but when I click on the back arrow it does not do anything. The hardware back button does take me back to the previous (Recycler/Card View) fragment.
I also have setHasOptionsMenu(true) in the detail fragment.
I put log tags everywhere to see when the home button reacts but nothing.
Hope someone can give me a hand.
Activity:
public class AppStart extends AppCompatActivity implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
ActionBarDrawerToggle actionBarDrawerToggle;
final String TAG = "AppSart: onBackPressed";
final String TAG1 = "AppSart: resetActionBar";
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_app_start);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
int stack = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Log.d(TAG,Integer.toString(stack));
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
return false;
}
public void resetActionBar(boolean childAction)
{
Log.d(TAG1,Boolean.toString(childAction));
if (childAction) {
actionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
} else {
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
actionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
}
}
}
Recycler Fragment:
public class ProductFragment extends Fragment {
final String TAG1 = "ProdFrag: onCreate";
final String TAG2 = "ProdFrag: onCreateView";
final String TAG3 = "ProdFrag: onResume";
final String TAG6 = "ProdFrag: ActionSetting";
final String TAG7 = "ProdFrag: home";
public ProductFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Log.d(TAG1,Integer.toString(stack));
boolean canback = stack>0;
((AppStart)getActivity()).resetActionBar(canback);
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Log.d(TAG3,Integer.toString(stack));
boolean canback = stack>0;
((AppStart)getActivity()).resetActionBar(canback);
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
View view=inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_product,container,false);
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Log.d(TAG2,Integer.toString(stack));
return view;
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
inflater.inflate(R.menu.toolbar_menu, menu);
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu,inflater);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_settings:
Log.d(TAG6,Integer.toString(stack));
return true;
default:
break;
}
return false;
}
}
Detail Fragment:
public class ProductTabsFragment extends Fragment {
final String TAG1 = "TabFrag: onCreate";
final String TAG2 = "TabFrag: onResume";
final String TAG3 = "TabFrag: ActionSettings";
final String TAG4 = "TabFrag: home";
final String TAG5 = "TabFrag: onBckStkChng";
final String TAG6 = "TabFrag: onNavigateUp";
public ProductTabsFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Log.d(TAG1,Integer.toString(stack));
boolean canback = stack>0;
((AppStart)getActivity()).resetActionBar(canback);
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Log.d(TAG2,Integer.toString(stack));
boolean canback = stack>0;
((AppStart)getActivity()).resetActionBar(canback);
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_product_tabs, container, false);
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
inflater.inflate(R.menu.toolbar_menu, menu);
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu,inflater);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int stack = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_settings:
Log.d(TAG3,Integer.toString(stack));
return true;
case android.R.id.home:
Log.d(TAG4,Integer.toString(stack));
//getActivity().onBackPressed();
return true;
default:
break;
}
return false;
}
}
Also this is the code in the recycler adapter for when a card is click to load the detail Fragment:
cvProduct.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
ProductTabsFragment productTabsFragment = new ProductTabsFragment();
AppCompatActivity activity = (AppCompatActivity) view.getContext();
FragmentTransaction transaction = activity.getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container,productTabsFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
}
});

For those who might have this problem. Turns out that when ActionBarDrawerToggle is used setToolbarNavigationClickListener needs to be used for the backarrow.
The R.id.home in optionitemselected seems to be disabled. Hope this helps!
so what I did was remove from the onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item):
case android.R.id.home:
Log.d(TAG4,Integer.toString(stack));
return true;
and modified resetActionBar(boolean childAction) in the main Activity which is called in the oncreate of fragmentA and fragmentB.
public void resetActionBar(boolean childAction)
{
Log.d(TAG1,Boolean.toString(childAction));
if (childAction) {
actionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
actionBarDrawerToggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Log.d(TAG4,"Clicked");
onBackPressed();
}
});
} else {
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(false);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
actionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
}
}

Saving booleans to bundles for later use in Android

When I try to save a boolean to a Bundle, it appears to save (from Print Outs), but then the system does not invoke the onRestoreInstanceState method during the process of recreation after returning from visiting the settings page of the app. (The settings are in a separate activity, tapped on from the options list in the upper right-hand corner)
According to:
https://developer.android.com/training/basics/activity-lifecycle/recreating.html
The onRestoreInstanceState method will only be invoked if the Bundle != null.
I also put it into the onCreate method (with a null checker) and the Bundle always turns up null.
I don't have enough reputation to post images, but this link shows the logcat: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v6vw9ynw5az5zhg/AndroidLogCat.PNG?dl=0
public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public final static String SWITCH_NAME = "com.company.name.myactivity.SWITCH";
#Override
public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
System.out.println("RESTORING INSTANCE STATE");
super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
if (savedInstanceState != null) {
System.out.println("RECEIVED INSTANCE STATE");
}
System.out.println("test");
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
System.out.println("TEST");
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
System.out.println("TeSt");
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_my, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
System.out.println("SAVING STEP 1: " + getSwitchValue());
savedInstanceState.putBoolean(SWITCH_NAME, getSwitchValue());
System.out.println("SAVING TEST BEFORE SUPERCLASS: " + savedInstanceState.getBoolean(SWITCH_NAME));
super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
System.out.println("SAVING TEST AFTER SUPERCLASS: " + savedInstanceState.getBoolean(SWITCH_NAME));
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
private boolean getSwitchValue() {
boolean switchValue = true;
Switch aSwitch = (Switch) findViewById(R.id.switch1);
if (aSwitch != null) switchValue = aSwitch.isChecked();
return switchValue;
}
}

error whilst passing values between activities

I have an activity which has an edit text which becomes visible when a button is clicked. I fill the edit text up and click another button. On clicking this button the edit text content must be sent to another activity.The first activity takes the edit text and queries a list of data from my Parse database and shows it in a ListView in the Second Activity.But whenever i click the first button(after entering the string) the app crashes.This is the first activity
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
String name;
EditText search;
Button g;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setUpSpinners();
Parse.initialize(this, "AAh5US7zhbYyFBexsv07cjo34ZZiB7KNe9SuTv7e",
"eKUG1pYaV50hVyDC9d4qZc4qf1dCtOTqnX92eGJV");
PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(this, MainActivity.class);
ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation();
search = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.search);
g = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Go);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
public void byName(View v) {
search.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
search.requestFocus();
g.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
public void Go(View v) {
name = search.getText().toString();
final Intent i;
i = new Intent(MainActivity.this, ResterauntList1.class);
i.putExtra("restrauntName", name);
startActivity(i);
}
}
In the above byName is the onClick for making the EditText visible, and Go is the onClick for getting my EditText string and passing it to the next activity. The second activity is below
public class ResterauntList1 extends Activity {
String rValue;
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter;
ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_resteraunt_list1);
Bundle bdl = getIntent().getExtras();
rValue = bdl.getString("restrauntName");
setContentView(R.layout.activity_resteraunt_list);
populateList(rValue, "name");
}
private void populateList(final String Value, final String Key) {
ParseQueryAdapter.QueryFactory<ParseObject> factory = new ParseQueryAdapter.QueryFactory<ParseObject>() {
#Override
#SuppressWarnings({ "unchecked", "rawtypes" })
public ParseQuery create() {
ParseQuery query = new ParseQuery("resdb");
query.whereEqualTo(Key, Value);
return query;
}
};
ParseQueryAdapter<ParseObject> adapter = new ParseQueryAdapter<ParseObject>(
this, factory);
adapter.setTextKey("name");
adapter.addOnQueryLoadListener(new OnQueryLoadListener<ParseObject>() {
#Override
public void onLoading() {
mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(ResterauntList1.this);
mProgressDialog.setTitle("Searching for " + Value);
mProgressDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
mProgressDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
mProgressDialog.show();
}
#Override
public void onLoaded(List<ParseObject> objects, Exception e) {
mProgressDialog.dismiss();
}
});
final ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.restListView1);
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
ParseObject object = (ParseObject) listView
.getItemAtPosition(position);
String Id = object.getObjectId();
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
SingleRestraunt.class);
i.putExtra("restId", Id);
startActivity(i);
}
});
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.resteraunt_list1, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
The error as stated above occurs when I click the Go button.The error is
09-02 14:58:46.443: E/AndroidRuntime(3061): Process: com.example.gastronomaapp, PID: 3061
09-02 14:58:46.443: E/AndroidRuntime(3061): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.gastronomaapp/com.example.gastronomaapp.ResterauntList1}: java.lang.NullPointerException
Any idea where I am making a mistake? The funniest thing almost the same code has worked in another part of my app. absolutely clueless whats wrong.

Bundle bdl = getIntent().getExtras();
rValue = bdl.getString("restrauntName");
change to
rValue = getIntent().getStringExtra("restrauntName");
You put the string directly on the intent, not packaged in a bundle.

Removing item from list on other activity

How can I remove a item from a ListActivity from a button on another Activity, the thing is,
I have this ListActivity:
public class ListaEventos extends ListActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onRestart();
republicar();
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.lista_eventos, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.criar_evento:
Intent criar = new Intent(this, CriarEvento.class);
startActivity(criar);
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
public void republicar() {
List<DadosEvento> eventos = MySingleton.getInstance().getEventos();
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<DadosEvento>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, eventos));
}
#Override
public void onListItemClick(ListView listView, View view, int position, long id) {
DadosEvento clickNumber = MySingleton.getInstance().getEventos().get(position);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ExibirEvento.class);
Bundle exibirEvento = new Bundle();
exibirEvento.putString("exibirNome", clickNumber.getNome());
exibirEvento.putString("exibirData", clickNumber.getData());
exibirEvento.putString("exibirEnd", clickNumber.getEndereco());
exibirEvento.putString("exibirTel", clickNumber.getTel());
intent.putExtras(exibirEvento);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Other Activity:
public class ExibirEvento extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_exibir_evento);
Intent intent = getIntent();
Bundle exibirEvento = intent.getExtras();
String exibirNome = exibirEvento.getString("exibirNome");
String exibirData = exibirEvento.getString("exibirData");
String exibirEnd = exibirEvento.getString("exibirEnd");
String exibirTel = exibirEvento.getString("exibirTel");
TextView exibir_nome = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.exibirevento_edittext_nome);
exibir_nome.setText(exibirNome);
TextView exibir_data = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.exibirevento_edittext_data);
exibir_data.setText(exibirData);
TextView exibir_end = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.exibirevento_edittext_end);
exibir_end.setText(exibirEnd);
TextView exibir_tel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.exibirevento_edittext_tel);
exibir_tel.setText(exibirTel);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.exibir_evento, menu);
return true;
}
public void sairExibicao(View v) {
finish();
}
}
Now, on the ExibirEvento is where it shows me the infos about the Party, and there I need a button that removes that item from the List.

Well there are several scenarios that you can follow.
Use startActivityForResult instead of startActivity and then override the onActivityResult method and catch a proper requestCode and result (e. g. RESULT_OK) and delete current item and notifyDataChanged the adapter
Use singelton class, create newInstance, set values, and then refere to it from ExibirEvento
Use the database, and take advantage of ContentProvider and Loader, and pass only the ID of the entry to ExibirEvento
I think that the 3 option is the best way to go for.

contextual action mode in fragment - close if not focused?

i implemented a contextual action mode bar in a nested fragement. This fragment is part of a view pager and the view pager is also a fragment and part of a navigation drawer.
My Problem: I want to close the contextual action mode bar if the fragment is no more focused. So, if I swipe through the view pager the action mode bar should close. But if I use the onPause() method of the nested fragment, the method is not called directly. Often it waits until i swiped two or three times forward... Here are some pictures:
In the second picture you can see that the action mode bar is still there. So my question is:
In which method should I call my actionModeBar.finish() method, to close directly the action mode bar if i leave the fragment?
Maybe the code of the fragment helps you:
public class EditorFragment extends Fragment {
private static final String KEY_POSITION="position";
ListView listView;
private boolean isMultipleList = false;
private ActionMode acMode;
private int counterChecked = 0;
private ActionMode.Callback modeCallBack = new ActionMode.Callback() {
public boolean onPrepareActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu){
return false;
}
public void onDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
listView.clearChoices();
for (int i = 0; i < listView.getChildCount(); i++)
listView.setItemChecked(i, false);
listView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
listView.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_NONE);
}
});
isMultipleList = false;
counterChecked = 0;
mode = null;
}
public boolean onCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
mode.setTitle("1 Aufgabe");
mode.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.actionmode, menu);
return true;
}
public boolean onActionItemClicked(ActionMode mode, MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.actionmode_delete:
int choiceCount = listView.getCount();
SparseBooleanArray spBoolArray = listView.getCheckedItemPositions();
DBAufgaben db = new DBAufgaben(MainActivity.getMContext());
db.open();
for (int i = 0; i < choiceCount; i++) {
if(spBoolArray.get(i)){
db.deletContact(listView.getItemIdAtPosition(i));
}
}
Cursor cursor = db.getAllRecords();
AdapterEingang adapterE = new AdapterEingang(MainActivity.getMContext(), cursor, 0);
listView.setAdapter(adapterE);
db.close();
mode.finish();
break;
case R.id.actionmode_cancel:
mode.finish();
break;
}
return false;
}
};
//......//
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = null;
int position = getArguments().getInt(KEY_POSITION, -1);
switch(position){
case 0:
rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.pager_list, null);
listView = (ListView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.pager_list);
Context context = MainActivity.getMContext();
DBAufgaben db = new DBAufgaben(context);
db.open();
Cursor cursor = db.getAllRecords();
AdapterEingang adapterE = new AdapterEingang(context, cursor, 0);
listView.setAdapter(adapterE);
db.close();
listView.setOnItemLongClickListener(new OnItemLongClickListener(){
#Override
public boolean onItemLongClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view,
int position, long id) {
if(!isMultipleList){
acMode = MainActivity.getInstance().startActionMode(modeCallBack);
listView.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE);
listView.setItemChecked(position, true);
isMultipleList = true;
counterChecked++;
setNewTitle();
} else {
listView.setItemChecked(position, true);
counterChecked++;
setNewTitle();
}
return true;
}
});
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener(){
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position,
long id) {
Log.d(getTag(), "Datensatz: "+String.valueOf(id));
if(isMultipleList){
if(listView.isItemChecked(position)){
listView.setItemChecked(position, true);
counterChecked++;
setNewTitle();
} else {
listView.setItemChecked(position, false);
counterChecked--;
setNewTitle();
}
}
}
});
break;
default:
rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.frag_dummy, null);
TextView txt = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.dummy_txt);
txt.setText(String.valueOf(position));
break;
}
return(rootView);
}
public void setNewTitle(){
if(counterChecked == 1){
acMode.setTitle(counterChecked+" Aufgabe");
} else {
acMode.setTitle(counterChecked+" Aufgaben");
}
}
#Override
public void onPause(){
super.onPause();
if(isMultipleList){
acMode.finish();
}
}
}

ViewPagers keep multiple pages active at any one time (by default, the page before and page after the currently shown page), hence why onPause() is not called until you swipe two pages away.
Your best bet would be to use a ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener, and show and hide the ActionMode in onPageSelected(..) (i.e. if the page selected isn't the one with the ActionMode, hide the ActionMode). You'll likely have to implement this in the Activity which hosts your ViewPager.

Here's what worked for me --
Hold a static reference to the action mode in MyFragment:
public static ActionMode mActionMode;
#Override
public boolean onCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
mActionMode = mode;
return true;
}
#Override
public void onDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
mActionMode = null;
}
Set ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener in MyViewPagerActivity.
mViewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {
....
#Override
public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) {
if(MyFragment.mActionMode != null) MyFragment.mActionMode.finish();
}
});

This worked for me:
#Override
public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
if (!isVisibleToUser && this.listView != null) {
//HACK this is done in order to finish the contextual action bar
int choiceMode = this.listView.getChoiceMode();
this.listView.setChoiceMode(choiceMode);
}
}

I combined code from the OP with the override suggested by user pomber:
I save the ActionMode to a class field when the action mode is created.
I set the field back to null when the action mode is destroyed.
I override setUserVisibleHint in my fragment and call ActionMode#finish() if the fragment isn't visible in the view pager.
I also call ActionMode#finish() in the onPause() method of the fragment to close the fragment if the user navigates elsewhere.
Code:
#Nullable
ActionMode mActionMode = null;
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
// Start out with a progress indicator.
setListShownNoAnimation(false);
setEmptyText(getText(R.string.no_forms_in_progress));
getListView().setChoiceMode(AbsListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE_MODAL);
getListView().setMultiChoiceModeListener(new AbsListView.MultiChoiceModeListener() {
#Override
public void onItemCheckedStateChanged(ActionMode mode, int position, long id, boolean checked) {
// Here you can do something when items are selected/de-selected,
// such as update the title in the CAB
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = mode.getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.context_saved_item, menu);
inflater.inflate(R.menu.context_instance_list, menu);
mActionMode = mode;
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onPrepareActionMode(ActionMode mode, Menu menu) {
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onActionItemClicked(ActionMode mode, MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_delete:
confirmDelete(getListView().getCheckedItemIds());
return true;
case R.id.action_print:
print(getListView().getCheckedItemIds());
return true;
}
return false;
}
#Override
public void onDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode) {
mActionMode = null;
}
});
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
if (mActionMode != null) {
mActionMode.finish();
}
}
#Override
public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser);
if (mActionMode != null && !isVisibleToUser) {
mActionMode.finish();
}
}

You can use the onDestroyOptionsMenu() method inside your Fragment:
public void onDestroyOptionsMenu() {
super.onDestroyOptionsMenu();
if (mActionMode != null) {
mActionMode.finish();
mActionMode = null;
}
}
