I'm stuck with communication between activity and fragment using interface. I have created activity with child fragment. I wanna do some stuff with continuous thread defined in activity and during that thread when I'm getting some result at that time I wanna trigger to child fragment to do something.
My Container Activity
public class MySpaceActivity extends BaseDrawerActivity {
private OnSetLastSeenListener mListner;
public static Thread mThread = null;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
super.setHeaders(Const.MY_SPACE);
super.setSubmenus(Const.MY_SPACE,
Utils.getSubmenuList(Const.MY_SPACE, MySpaceActivity.this),
submenuBean);
// super.attachFragment(submenuBean);
}
#Override
public void setHeaderSubMenu(SubmenuBean subMenuBean) {
// txt_submenu.setText(subMenuBean.getSubmenu_name());
this.submenuBean = subMenuBean;
Log.print("::::: setHeaderSubMenu ::::");
super.attachFragment(submenuBean);
}
public void setsubFragment(SubmenuBean subMenuBean) {
this.submenuBean = subMenuBean;
super.attachSubFragment(submenuBean);
}
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
popLastFragment();
}
private void popLastFragment() {
if (super.getNumberOfChilds() > 1) {
super.popSubFragment();
} else {
finish();
}
}
#Override
protected Fragment getFragement() {
StudentsFragment fragment = new StudentsFragment(Const.MY_SPACE,
getSubmenubean());
return fragment;
}
public SubmenuBean getSubmenubean() {
return submenuBean;
}
#Override

mThread.start();
}
#Override

super.onStop();
if (mThread.isAlive()) {
mThread.interrupt();
mThread = null;
}
}
public void updateLastSeen(){
Log.print("::::::Call Interface::::::");
mListner.updateLastSeen();
}
class CountDownTimer implements Runnable {
private Context mContext;
private JSONObject mJsonObject;
private JSONArray mJsonArray;
public CountDownTimer(Context mContext) {
this.mContext = mContext;
}
// #Override
public void run() {
while (!Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()) {
try {
HttpChatLastSeen mChat = new HttpChatLastSeen();
mJsonObject = mChat.Http_ChatLastSeen(mContext);
String mResult = mJsonObject.getString("Result");
if (mResult.equalsIgnoreCase(String
.valueOf(Const.RESULT_OK))) {
mJsonArray = mJsonObject.getJSONArray("UserData");
for (int i = 0; i < mJsonArray.length(); i++) {

}
} else {

}
updateLastSeen();
Thread.sleep(15000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.print("ChatLastSeenThread : ", e.getMessage());
}
}
}
}
}
My Child Fragment With Interface :
public class StudentsFragment extends Fragment implements OnSetLastSeenListener{
TextView txt_submenu;
ListView list_students;
SubmenuBean submenuBean;
int Mainmenu;
MySpaceActivity mMySpaceActivity;
ArrayList<DbStudentMasterBean> studentsList;
StudentsAdapter mAdapter = null;
OnSetLastSeenListener mListner;
public StudentsFragment() {
super();
}
public StudentsFragment(int Mainmenu, SubmenuBean submenuBean) {
this.submenuBean = submenuBean;
this.Mainmenu = Mainmenu;
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_students, container,
false);
mMySpaceActivity = (MySpaceActivity) getActivity();
txt_submenu = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.txt_submenu);
txt_submenu.setText(submenuBean.getSubmenu_name());
txt_submenu.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
mMySpaceActivity.openDrawer();
}
});
list_students = (ListView) view.findViewById(R.id.list_colleagues);
studentsList = new DbStudentMasterBll(getActivity()).getAllRecords();
mAdapter = new StudentsAdapter(getActivity(), studentsList, handler);
list_students.setAdapter(mAdapter);
list_students.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
DbStudentMasterBean bean = (DbStudentMasterBean) parent
.getAdapter().getItem(position);
Message msg = new Message();
msg.what = CHAT;
msg.obj = bean;
handler.sendMessage(msg);
}
});
return view;
}
Handler handler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(android.os.Message msg) {
switch (msg.what) {
case CHAT:
submenuBean.setTag(VIEWCHATSTUDENT);
DbStudentMasterBean bean = (DbStudentMasterBean) msg.obj;
mMySpaceActivity.setsubFragment(submenuBean);
break;
}
};
};
#Override
public void updateLastSeen() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.print("!!!!!!!!!Refresh Adapter!!!!!!!!!!!");
mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
My Interface :
public interface OnSetLastSeenListener {
public void updateLastSeen();
}
So I have implemented interface OnSetLastSeenListener with my child fragment StudentsFragment . Now I'm calling method of tht interface updateLastSeen() from my container activity with thread. But it is not getting trigger to child fragment where I have implemented interface. So I don't know whether it is good way to communicate or not? Let me take your help to suggest on this solution or best way to communicate from child fragment to parent activity.
Thanks,
It is better to use interface when you want to communicate something from Fragment to Activity and not vice versa.
In your case, you can directly call the method in Fragment from Activity through fragment object. No need to use interface.
Something like this (For static fragments)
StudentsFragment fragment = (StudentsFragment) getFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentid);
if (fragment != null && fragment.isInLayout()) {
fragment.updateLastSeen();
}
For dynamic fragment you can use the fragment object directly.

I am trying to implement callback between AsyncTask and Fragment but cannot find correct info how to do it. The issue is that all callback implementations are between activity and asynctask but I need between fragment and asynctask. Could someone give me small working example how to implement it without activity.
My action structure: Fragment call DialogFragment -> choose something and send server request to async task -> async task process everything and update view and some variables. My main problem is that I call prepareData() only once in onCreate and when I walk between other fragment and returns come back I see old data. That is to say there is not enough to update only view in onPost of asynctask. It will be good to have callback which will update the whole variables.

Without taking your code in consideration I will post the most essential to make a functional callback.
TestFragment:
public class TestFragment extends Fragment {
/* Skipping most code and I will only show you the most essential. */
private void methodThatStartsTheAsyncTask() {
TestAsyncTask testAsyncTask = new TestAsyncTask(new FragmentCallback() {
#Override
public void onTaskDone() {
methodThatDoesSomethingWhenTaskIsDone();
}
});
testAsyncTask.execute();
}
private void methodThatDoesSomethingWhenTaskIsDone() {
/* Magic! */
}
public interface FragmentCallback {
public void onTaskDone();
}
}
TestAsyncTask:
public class TestAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
private FragmentCallback mFragmentCallback;
public TestAsyncTask(FragmentCallback fragmentCallback) {
mFragmentCallback = fragmentCallback;
}
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
/* Do your thing. */
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
mFragmentCallback.onTaskDone();
}
}
I've found several questions about this, none of which help me. Each question relates to other functions and views I don't implement in my fragments, and the issue is not that I need to swap my method getting the FragmentManager to getChildFragmentManager() anywhere in my fragments, because I don't need to get a FragmentManager there.
I'm guessing that my issue stems from the fragments and not the FragmentTabHost in the main activity, but I am not really sure. At all. All I know is that when you page between tabs, the adapter content disappears, but not the fragment itself. All views are still functional, so the functionality of each fragment remains intact.
This issue popped up only after I added a tab change listener for when to initialize the adapter for my chat fragment.
Note that the content of the tabs is fine when they are first initialized, but when you return to the tab the content in the adapters empty. This means that the tab that is not initialized yet when the FragmentTabHost is created, the hidden tabs haven't been initialized yet, so they will still work the first time you page over to them.
Through debugging, I can see that this issue occurs when the transition happens, and all adapters will remain empty for the duration of the usage session. I put this snippit of code before the initial checks in my tabHost.setOnTabChangedListener call:
//Before paging back to an initialized tab for the first time, the adapters of the initialized tab is populated.
Log.d("test", "pre");
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
//At this point, the adapter is empty.
Log.d("test", "post");
}
}, 50);
The two fragments are as follows:
public class GroupTasksFragment extends Fragment {
public ArrayAdapter<String> adapter;

// Required empty public constructor

Also note that the issue is not that I need to store the FragmentManager instance, as that doesn't do anything.
I found my issue. It turns out that every time a fragment is paged to in the FragmentTabHost, it's createView method is called again, and only that method, so by setting the adapter in the fragment to empty in that view, which I thought was only at the start, I reset the adapter each time.
I fixed this by keeping the adapter content as an instance variable list object that I add or remove strings to/from when I want to change the adapter. DO NOT ALSO PUT THE STRINGS IN THE ADAPTER, updating the list is enough. The list will directly add it to the adapter.
Also note that if you set the initial content outside of the fragment, it may not show when the tabs are first initialized. Just be careful of your statement ordering and when things are called. Fragment construction is funky business.
Then, I set the adapter to whatever is in the list each time the createView method is called.
Can somebody answer this question for me:
For testing purposes I have created an activity with a for loop in which I'm creating 10 AlertDialogs or 10 DialogFragments.
Immediately after the activity is started I'm pressing the home button to send the app in the background.
If I'm running the showDialog() method to create the DialogFragments the app will crash with:
IllegalStateException: Can not perform this action after onSaveInstanceState
this is expected behavior.
But if I run the showAlert() method to create the AlertDialogs and same as before I'm sending the app to the background the app doesn't crash. When I return to the activity I can see all 10 AlertDialogs.
The question is why does the activity state loss happen with DialogFragment and not with AlertDialog?
I am still changing the UI after the activity's state has been saved. The platform on which I have tested is Android 4.4.2

The answer is very simple, though a bit underwhelming.
The oft-seen java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can not perform this action after onSaveInstanceState exception is actually thrown by the FragmentManager class. The reason why is explained very well in this post by Alex Lockwood.
DialogFragments are Fragments (and thus managed by FragmentManager). Therefore, showing dialogs in this way can provoke the exception. However, the implementation of AlertDialog is completely different: it doesn't use Fragments at all (indeed, it actually predates Fragments). Hence, no exceptions.
It may be a silly question but I didn't find a good way to update a dialogfragment's textview from an activity in my android app.
What I'd like to do is to update the textview every second with a counter value and once the time elapsed, a Runnable closes the dialog fragment.
The dialog is closed once the time is elapsed, no problem but I cannot update the textview I want.
Here's my code for the dialog:
public class AlertDialog extends DialogFragment {
private String message = null;
private String title = null;
private ImageView imgV = null;
private TextView msgTv = null;
private TextView counterTv = null;
private Button okBtn = null;
private int imageId = 0;
public static int AUTOMATIC_CLOSE = 100001;
private AlertDialogListener mDialogListener;
public void setImage(int i){
imageId = i;
}
public void setContent(String ttl, String msg){
message = msg;
title = ttl;
}
public boolean hasContent(){
return message != null && title != null;
}
public AlertDialog(){
}
public void performClick(){
okBtn.performClick();
}
public void updateField(String text){
counterTv.setText(text);
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.dialog, container);
msgTv = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.textDialog);
imgV = (ImageView)v.findViewById(R.id.imageDialog);
counterTv = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.timeCounterDialog);
if(imageId != 0)
imgV.setImageResource(imageId);
else
imgV.setImageResource(R.drawable.error_icon);
if(hasContent()){
msgTv.setText(message);
getDialog().setTitle(title);
}
else{
getDialog().setTitle("ERROR");
msgTv.setText("An unexcepted error occured");
}
okBtn = (Button)v.findViewById(R.id.validateButton);
okBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if(mDialogListener != null){
mDialogListener.onFinishedDialog();
}
}
});
return v;
}
#Override
public void onStart() {
mDialogListener.onStartedDialog();
super.onStart();
}
#Override
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
mDialogListener = (AlertDialogListener) activity;
super.onAttach(activity);
}
#Override
public void onDetach() {
mDialogListener = null;
super.onDetach();
}
public interface AlertDialogListener{
void onStartedDialog();
void onFinishedDialog();
}
}
And this is how I launch it:
class myActivity extends Activity implements AlertDialogListener{
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
"""some init stuff"""
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
showAlertDialog();
}
}
#Override
public void onStartedDialog() {
AutoCloseRunnable mAutoClose = new AutoCloseRunnable();
mHandler.postDelayed(mAutoClose, 1000);
}
#Override
public void onFinishedDialog() {
this.finish();
}
private void showAlertDialog(){
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
mAlertDialog = new AlertDialog();
mAlertDialog.setContent("No Connection available", "Please enable your internet connection.");
mAlertDialog.setImage(R.drawable.error_icon);
mAlertDialog.show(fm, "fragment_alert");
}
private void updateAlertDialog(String text){
mAlertDialog.updateField(text);
}
private void autoCloseAlertDialog(){
mAlertDialog.performClick();
}
public class AutoCloseRunnable implements Runnable{
#Override
public void run() {
int closeCpt = 10;
while(closeCpt >= 0){
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);
updateAlertDialog("Will close automatically in " + closeCpt + " seconds.");
closeCpt--;
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
autoCloseAlertDialog();
}
}
}
Does anyone know how to proceed?
I solved it, simply use asynctask it's easier to handle UI updates like this.
First of all, I am relatively new to android programming.
I am creating a ViewPager application with two Fragments. One of the Fragments requests data from a server and return a result to the main FragmentActivity. My problem is that this request to the server can take sometime, and I have been trying to get a ProgressDialog to appear with AsyncTask while the user waits for the data to be retrieved. Once I create the background thread to retrieve the data, I successfully execute some code in the onPostExecute() method and set some variables. However, the return statement that sends information back to the FragmentActivity is being executed before the background thread actually ends. I can't seem to figure out a way for the main thread to wait on the background thread. Using Asyctask's get() method results in the ProgressDialog from appearing. I have looked through a lot of posts in here, but can't seem to find an answer.
Anything helps.
Code below:
SplashScreen.java
public class SplashScreen extends FragmentActivity {
MainMenu mainMenu;
MapScreen mapScreen;
PagerAdapter pagerAdapter;
ViewPager viewPager;
List<LatLng> geoPoints;
private Context context;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash_screen);
context = this;
initializePaging();
}
private void initializePaging()
{
mainMenu = new MainMenu();
mapScreen = new MapScreen();
pagerAdapter = new PagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
pagerAdapter.addFragment(mainMenu);
pagerAdapter.addFragment(mapScreen);
viewPager = (ViewPager) super.findViewById(R.id.viewPager);
viewPager.setAdapter(pagerAdapter);
viewPager.setOffscreenPageLimit(2);
viewPager.setCurrentItem(0);
viewPager.setOnPageChangeListener(new OnPageChangeListener()
{
#Override
public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int postion){}
#Override
public void onPageScrolled(int arg0, float arg1, int arg2){}
#Override
public void onPageSelected(int position)
{
switch(position){
case 0: findViewById(R.id.first_tab).setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

You never set the value of result...
