I have a problem with my Tab Layout. When I start my TabActivity the tabs are shown in background and not on top. Why is that so ?
TabsActivity :
public class TabSample extends TabActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tabactivity);
TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab1").setIndicator("ABC").setContent(new Intent(this, SettingsActivity.class)));
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab2").setIndicator("DEF").setContent(new Intent(this, Support.class)));
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab1").setIndicator("GHI").setContent(new Intent(this, EmailActivity.class)));
tabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("tab2").setIndicator("TV Survey").setContent(new Intent(this, JKL.class)));
tabHost.setCurrentTab(0);
}
}
tabsactivity.xml
<TabHost
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"

Use layout_above="id/tabs" for frameLayout

I am trying to create a tab host to but I cant seem to make it work, what am i doing wrong? I have setup up createTab() on my onCreate method but it crashes.
I am simply creating a tabhost that holds around 5 tabs. Also I am trying to implement swipe view if anyone knows how to implement it
Main activity
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
TabHost tab;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
private void createTab() {
TabHost.TabSpec tab1Spec = tab.newTabSpec("tab1");
tab1Spec.setIndicator("TAB 1");
Intent p = new Intent(this, tab1.class);
tab1Spec.setContent(p);
TabHost.TabSpec tab2Spec = tab.newTabSpec("tab2");
tab2Spec.setIndicator("TAB 2");
Intent p = new Intent(this, tab2.class);
tab2Spec.setContent(p);
tab.addTab(tab1Spec);
tab.addTab(tab2Spec);
}
}

You didn't initialize your tab host , then you've used it in this line which throw a NullPointerException :
TabHost.TabSpec tab1Spec = tab.newTabSpec("tab1");
before using tab initialize it like :
tab = (TabHost)this.findViewById(android.R.id.tabhost)
I have a button and below i have tabview with several tabs.
Wherewer I choose a tab I want to listen clics for elements on main activity. For example how can I listen clicks for imRefresh?
If I set onitem click listener I recieve nullpointer exception
main activity, which ititialise tabview
public class MainActivity extends TabActivity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();
// Android tab
Intent intentAndroid = new Intent().setClass(this, Tab1Activity.class);
TabSpec tabSpecAndroid = tabHost
.newTabSpec("Test1")
.setIndicator("Test1")
.setContent(intentAndroid);
// Apple tab
Intent intentApple = new Intent().setClass(this, Tab2Activity.class);
TabSpec tabSpecApple = tabHost
.newTabSpec("Test2")
.setIndicator("Test2")
.setContent(intentApple);
// add all tabs
tabHost.addTab(tabSpecAndroid);
tabHost.addTab(tabSpecApple);
//set Windows tab as default (zero based)
tabHost.setCurrentTab(2);
}
}

You can't - period. Not even via hacking around with ViewParents and window hierarchies. Sorry. This is due to how TabActivity works: Each of its tabs is actually its own self-contained Activity, that gets kind of "transplanted" into the TabActivity via some magic on the Android Framework's side. Separate activities have absolutely no way (via Android APIs) of getting view information about each other.
What'd make your task a lot simpler, is to switch to Fragments. Your use case is one of the most common examples: check out http://android.codeandmagic.org/android-tabs-with-fragments/
I have the following class in java. My purpose is to design a tabhost and have an activity start when the first tab is displayed. Also i want to have a different activity start when another tab is clicked.
I have implemented the onTabChanged method but it doesn't seem to work. Can you help me?
Here is my class:
public class Tabs extends Activity implements OnTabChangeListener{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tabs);
TabHost th = (TabHost) findViewById(R.id.tabhost);
th.setup();
TabSpec profile = th.newTabSpec("tag1");
profile.setContent(R.id.tab1);
profile.setIndicator("", getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.profile_tab));
TabSpec matches = th.newTabSpec("tag2");
matches.setContent(R.id.tab2);
matches.setIndicator("", getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.matches_tab));
TabSpec friends = th.newTabSpec("tag3");
friends.setContent(R.id.tab3);
friends.setIndicator("", getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.friends_tab));
th.addTab(profile);
th.addTab(matches);
th.addTab(friends);
}
#Override
public void onTabChanged(String arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
This is my tabs.xml layout file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TabHost

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TabWidget
android:id="#android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
</TabWidget>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/tab1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<include layout="#layout/matches_page"/>

android:id="#+id/tab3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</TabHost>
</LinearLayout>
you miss th.setOnTabChangeListener(this);
You have to inform TabHost which implementation of the OnTabChangeListener interface has to call
Hi guyzz I have TabActivity as following simple code
public class TabhostActivity extends Activity{
TabHost host;
public class TabhostActivity extends Activity{
TabHost host;
#Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.tablayout);
host = (TabHost) findViewById(R.id.mytabhost);
host.setup();
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), RatingBarActivity.class);
TabHost.TabSpec spec = host.newTabSpec("positions").setIndicator("Positions",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.add)).setContent(intent);
host.addTab(spec);

So please help me where the code is getting wrong?? I got exception as
02-23 14:09:47.920: E/AndroidRuntime(1000): Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Did you forget to call 'public void setup(LocalActivityManager activityGroup)'?
you are extending Activity class, try extending TabActivity class
or
if you want to use the Activity class then use the following :
host = (TabHost) findViewById(R.id.tabhost); //here tabHost will be your Tabhost
LocalActivityManager mLocalActivityManager = new LocalActivityManager(mActivity, false);
mLocalActivityManager.dispatchCreate(state); // state will be bundle your activity state which you get in onCreate
tabHost.setup(mLocalActivityManager);
I have a strange error with my code.
I am trying to show to user logo and after that to display the tabs.
Tried to clean and build project still the same errors,and I dont use import R.
But my problem is some strange error :
java.lang.RuntimeException: Your content must have a TabHost whose id attribute is 'android.R.id.tabhost'
My app have error on
setContentView(R.layout.logoscreen);
my code is:
public class tabs extends TabActivity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//setContentView(R.layout.logoscreen);
new GetDataTask(this).execute();
}
private class GetDataTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Integer> {
Context context;
GetDataTask(Context context){this.context=context;}
protected void onPostExecute(Integer result) {
//tabs.this.setContentView(R.layout.tabs);
setContentView(R.layout.logoscreen);
//setContentView(R.layout.tabs);
TabHost tabHost= (TabHost)tabs.this.findViewById(R.id.tabhost);
TabHost.TabSpec spec; // Resusable TabSpec for each tab
Intent intent; // Reusable Intent for each tab
// Create an Intent to launch an Activity for the tab (to be reused)
intent = new Intent().setClass(context,start.class);
// Initialize a TabSpec for each tab and add it to the TabHost
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("Heb news").setIndicator("Heb news").setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
// Do the same for the other tabs
intent = new Intent().setClass(context, rusNewsP.ListRusNews.class);
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("Rus News").setIndicator("Rus News").setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);
tabHost.setCurrentTab(0);
}
}
my xml file is logoscreen.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

thanks for the help!!!
if you use Tabhost then must have android:id="#android:id/tabhost" and You have
android:id="#+id/tabhost"
