Destroy FragmentStatePagerAdapter instance with parent Fragment - android

I am not sure how to ask this. I tried in here, but I guess I was not clear enough. So, I thought I just write a small App to describe the situation. Please note, the App uses Googles SlidingTabLayout.
Long story short, at any point if I click Button1, the FrameLayout should contain Fragment1, removing Fragment2 (if exists). Therefore, FragmentViewPager should also be destroyed as Fragment2. However, even then if I change the orientation of my device, I get the Toast which is defined in the onCreate() method of FragmentViewPager.
Why FragmentViewPager's onCreate is called even if Fragment2 is paused/destroyed? Is it possible that, the Toast of FragmentViewPager will not be shown when Fragment2 is destroyed?

when you use fragment inside another fragment. you use getChildFragmentManager() instead of getFragmentManager. You can call setAdapter() for the ViewPager from onCreateView() or onActivityCreated()
for more detail. have a look at it
Why it is not possible to use ViewPager within a Fragment? It actually is

For every click your OnClickListener creates the instance of Fragment2 and does not create Fragment1. That is due to the misuse of View#getTag.
In MainActivity#onCreate, change the if in the definition of onClickListener to this(using this answer):
switch (v.getId()){
case R.id.button1:
fragment = new Fragment1();
break;
case R.id.button2:
fragment = new Fragment2();
break;
default:
return;
}
In your code, in the if that is checked upon a click (for example after clicking button1) android asks v (the clicked View) for its tag - but as none was set using View#setTag - it returns null which is of course not equal to the String object created for "button1", thus the if reverts to the else every time.

Communication between swipe view Tabs

i followed this article http://www.truiton.com/2015/06/android-tabs-example-fragments-viewpager/ to implement swipe view and it work nice. So now i want to add button on Tab1 and when clicked has to send data to Tab2.
I know there is the issue of using interface but honestly i don't know how to add it on these codes and work provide am completely new to the android.
so far i have tried my best on these links Communication between SlidingTabLayout tabs, How to pass data from one swipe tab to another? and How can I communicate/pass data through different Fragments with Swipe Tab? but i fail.
Any one help please to make it work on every stage , i mean from Tab1 ->Mainactivity->Tab2
thanks alot
Here are the codes after i edit the question

send=(Button)v.findViewById(R.id.send);
send.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;

public class PagerAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
int mNumOfTabs;
public PagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm, int NumOfTabs) {
super(fm);
this.mNumOfTabs = NumOfTabs;
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
switch (position) {
case 0:
TabFragment1 tab1 = new TabFragment1();
return tab1;
case 1:
TabFragment2 tab2 = new TabFragment2();
return tab2;
default:
return null;
}
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mNumOfTabs;
}
}
so after posting more code I'm answering:
Implement some FragmentCommunication for both your Fragments:
//public class TabFragment1 extends Fragment implements FragmentCommunication{
public class TabFragment2 extends Fragment implements FragmentCommunication{
//public static final String TAG="TabFragment1";
public static final String TAG="TabFragment2";
...
#Override
public void onActivityCreated (Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
if(getActivity() instanceOf MainActivity)
((MainActivity) getActivity()).registerFragmentCommunication(
TAG, this);
}
#Override
public void printMessage(String message){
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), TAG+" says: "+message,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
note this line inside onActivityCreated:
((MainActivity) getActivity()).registerFragmentCommunication(TAG, this);
this means implemented FragmentCommunication, TAG will be unique key/name of Fragment and whole method is registration of your interface in Activity. so now you have to add registerFragmentCommunication method to your MainActivity and keep reference to passed interfaces, e.g. in HashMap:
HashMap<String, FragmentCommunication> fragmentCommunications =
new HashMap<String, FragmentCommunication>();
...
public void registerFragmentCommunication(String key, FragmentCommunication fc){
fragmentCommunications.put(key, fc);
}
so now you can access each FragmentCommunication of both fragments from your MainActivity, e.g by using method like this:
public void callFragmentCommunication(String key, String msg){
if(fragmentCommunications.get(key)!=null)
fragmentCommunications.get(key).printMessage();
}
callFragmentCommunication(TabFragment1.TAG, "hi!");
callFragmentCommunication(TabFragment2.TAG, "hi!");
method is public, so Fragments can call it simply like this:
//inside TabFragment1
if(isAdded() && getActivity()!=null &&
getActivity() instanceOf MainActivity &&
!getActivity().isFinishing())
((MainActivity) getActivity()).callFragmentCommunication(
TabFragment2.TAG, "hi!");
this will show Toast with text: "TabFragment2 says: hi!", which was called inside TabFragment1. now you may pass another kind of data as well :)
there is much more methods like communicating through FragmentStatePagerAdapter like here, passing Bundle arguments where fragments are initialized, additional feedback interfaces (e.g. returning true/false when message was passed) etc. Above is just very simplified way, good luck with improving it! :)

FragmentStatePagerAdapter resets content of first fragment

When App starts it's showing first fragment and preparing second one, when I slide to second it's preparing third... When I slide back from second to third everythink is fine but when slide 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1 the first one content has been reseted... What could be a problem here?

switch (position) {
case 0:
System.out.println("0");
return foldersFragment;
case 1:
System.out.println("1");
return nowPlayingFragment;
case 2:
System.out.println("2");
return eqFragment;
}
return null;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return 3;
}
}
}
The default offscreen limit is 1 so each time you go to the next fragment it will check if there is fragment that is already been offscreen and will be restarted when you go back to it:
if you are currently at page 3
1 -> |offset| 2 -> (3) -> 4 -> |offset| 5
so page 1 and page 5 will be restarted if it is before or after the current page + the offset.
To increase the offset you can call:
mViewPager.setOffscreenPageLimit(4)

Android Activity with Fragments, findFragment always returns null

I'm dealing with and Android app using an activity and 3 fragments with a ViewPager and a FragmentPagerAdapter.
The app is working correctly but I still cannot retrieve the reference of a Fragment within the Activity.
The methods findFragmentById and findFragmentbyTag always return null.
Here's my code:
FragmentPagerAdapter:
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter;
public class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
final int PAGE_COUNT = 3;
public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return PAGE_COUNT;
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
switch (position) {
// Open FragmentTab1.java
case 0:
FragmentTab1 fragmenttab1 = new FragmentTab1();
return fragmenttab1;
// Open FragmentTab2.java
case 1:
FragmentTab2 fragmenttab2 = new FragmentTab2();
return fragmenttab2;
// Open FragmentTab3.java
case 2:
FragmentTab3 fragmenttab3 = new FragmentTab3();
return fragmenttab3;
}
return null;
}
}
Fragment implementation:
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
public class FragmentTab1 extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Get the view from fragmenttab1.xml
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragmenttab1, container, false);
return view;
}
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
}
And finally my activity:
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.view.ViewPager;
import android.os.Bundle;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Get the view from activity_main.xml
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Locate the viewpager in activity_main.xml
viewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
viewPagerAdapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
// Set the ViewPagerAdapter into ViewPager
viewPager.setAdapter(viewPagerAdapter);
}
#Override
protected void onStart()
{
super.onStart();
InitializeVariables();
viewPager.setCurrentItem(1);
Fragment fragment = (Fragment)getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(makeFragmentName(viewPager.getId(), 0));
}

addToBackStack() method is not working without overriding the onBackPressed() method in android

Here is the code of MainActivity which I have written.
I am loading the list of fragment in the first screen. When the user taps on any of the list items, the planet name will be shown to the user in the detail fragment which I have defined in a separate class.
I am adding the transaction of "Fragment Planet List" -> "Fragment Planet Detail" to back stack. So what I expect is when I press the back button from the fragment of planet detail, it should load planet list in the phone. But it is not happening this way.

import com.meditab.fragments.fragment.FragmentPlanetDetail;
import com.meditab.fragments.fragment.FragmentPlanetList;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements Callback {
private FrameLayout frmPlanetList;
private FrameLayout frmPlanetDetail;
private boolean isPhone;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
frmPlanetList = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.frmPlanetList);
frmPlanetDetail = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.frmPlanetDetail);
if (null != frmPlanetDetail) {
isPhone = false;
} else {
isPhone = true;
}
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.frmPlanetList, new FragmentPlanetList());
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
#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_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();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
#Override
public void onListItemClicked(int intPosition) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
List<String> lstPlanetArray = getPlanetArray();
String strPlanetName = lstPlanetArray.get(intPosition);
FragmentPlanetDetail fragmentPlanetDetail = FragmentPlanetDetail.newInstance(strPlanetName);
if (isPhone) {
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.frmPlanetList, fragmentPlanetDetail);
} else {
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.frmPlanetDetail, fragmentPlanetDetail);
}
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
private List<String> getPlanetArray() {
List<String> lstPlanets = new ArrayList<>(10);
lstPlanets.add("Mercury");
lstPlanets.add("Venus");
lstPlanets.add("Earth");
lstPlanets.add("Mars");
lstPlanets.add("Jupiter");
lstPlanets.add("Saturn");
lstPlanets.add("Uranus");
lstPlanets.add("Neptune");
lstPlanets.add("Saturn");
return lstPlanets;
}
}
However if I override the backPress method and pop the back stack programatically, it works just fine.
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
if (getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() != 0) {
getFragmentManager().popBackStack();
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
Do I need to override the onBackPressed() method this way if I want to achieve this behavour?

Thanks. Please let me know if any additional detail or code is needed.
Ok. So the reason why it is not working is the conflict of ActionBarActivty and Activity class differences.
And the differnce between getSupportFragmentManager() and getFragmentManager() methods of FragmentTransaction.
ActionBarActivity:
I was using ActionBarActivity which is android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity. This means I was using v7 compat library
FragmentManager:
Fragment Manager were not from the compat library. It was directly
import android.app.FragmentManager;
import android.app.FragmentTransaction;
as you can see in the MainActivity class.
Fragment:
android.app.Fragment; is the class which is imported in the separate fragment classes.
So once I changed from ActionBarActivity to Activity class, things were working fine.
The same holds true when I changed the FragmentManager,FragmentTransaction and Fragment classes to support library classes.
So after any of the modification, things started working normally.
Thanks.
Of course you don't need to override the onBackPressed() method. It's just a hack.
Your this condition is messing it up.
if (isPhone) {
fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);
why don't you use this statement without condition once to see if it works. You can keep rest as it is. Just move this statement outside of the if condition.
Wierd, but I think
addToBackStack(null)
is the problem
Try replcing it with
addToBackStack("planetDetail");
You are using actionbar activity which extends fragment activity. Now, to have perfect behaviour, you need support fragments to work with actionbar activity.
Here you are using actionbar activity with normal fragments (not support v4 fragments) and that's what is causing the issue. So to have perfect behaviour, change your fragments to support fragments and it should work fine.
Let me know if that doesn't work.
Well I was having the same problem with you. What worked for me and I think its the solution for you too is to change the :
1.fragment with the fragment from the support library :
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
and
getFragmentManager() with the getSupportFragmentManager() :

Using SherlockFragmentActivity works in newer android phone but not older model

so I have tested this code on a newer android and when I test it on an older version and click on a button to take me to a page with SwipeView and tabs, I get an error:

I have set the minimumSDK level in the android manifest to 7. I'm not sure why it won't work on the older android phone.
