getParent returns wrong ViewGroup - android

When execute code below I can verify in my LogCat that getParent returns an other ViewGroup then FrameLayout (It returns LinearLayout). Normally I would expect that getParent would return the framelayout...
Does anyone know why this is occuring?
java:
#Override
protected void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.actionbar_btn);
if (button.getParent() instanceof FrameLayout) {
Log.v("TAG", "parent was framelayout");
} else {
Log.v("TAG", "parent was no framelayout");
}
}
xml:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#00FF00"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/actionbar_home"
android:layout_width="33dp"
android:layout_height="32dp"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher"
/>
</FrameLayout>
.....
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

Shouldn't you change your R.id.actionbar_btn to R.id.actionbar_home?

I think you are getting wrong id for Button:
<Button
android:id="#+id/actionbar_home"
android:layout_width="33dp"
android:layout_height="32dp"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher"
/>
final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.actionbar_btn);
"R.id.actionbar_btn" and android:id="#+id/actionbar_home" should be same

'void android.databinding.ViewDataBinding.executePendingBindings()' on a null object reference - Algolia

The Error:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.databinding.ViewDataBinding.executePendingBindings()' on a null object reference
I double checked the names to the references used. Seems fine to me. I don't know why I keep getting this error. The view crashes as soon as I open it.
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_findfriend);
searcher = Searcher.create(ALGOLIA_APP_ID, ALGOLIA_SEARCH_API_KEY, ALGOLIA_INDEX_NAME);
helper = new InstantSearch(this, searcher);
helper.search();
// Get a reference to your Hits widget
final Hits hits = (Hits) findViewById(R.id.hits);
// Add an OnItemClickListener
hits.setOnItemClickListener(new ItemClickSupport.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(RecyclerView recyclerView, int position, View v) {
JSONObject hit = hits.get(position);
// Do something with the hit
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onDestroy() {
searcher.destroy();
super.onDestroy();
}
}
Here's my Activity:

Why isn't the view found for the id?

I'm trying to launch a fragment from an activity. However, when I run the app and click on the button that has to launch the fragment I get the error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No view found for id 0x7f0e0074 (com.example.hudhud.islam:id/kontaktfragment) for fragment Kontakt{aaaed67 #1 id=0x7f0e0074}
I can't see where I've made something wrong. It should be correct. This is the class where I implement the fragment. I'm only gonna upload the View onCreateView for this class as no more is needed:
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
final View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_kontakt, container, false);
sendmail = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.sendknap);
sendmail.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
msg = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.besked);
String message = msg.getText().toString();
sendemail(message);
}
});
return view;
}
I launch the fragment from here:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if (item.getItemId() == R.id.Kontakt) {
Fragment fragment = new Kontakt();
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.kontaktfragment, fragment)
.commit();
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
What have I missed?
Any help is appreciated!
EDIT:
This is the XML for the activity:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:id="#+id/Buttons"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="150dp"
android:layout_below="#id/velkomst" >

And this is the kontakfrag XML:

android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:id="#+id/kontaktfragment"></FrameLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
And this is the fragment_kontakt XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:gravity="top"

android:text="Send"
android:id="#+id/sendknap"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_weight="0.05"
android:textSize="20dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
My mistake was that I created the fragment as a separate layout and not as a framelayout on the frontpage. So the solution was to create a framelayout on the frontpage. That makes sense :)
First to the layout of activity, add this
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
Then in that activity java code add
Fragment fragment = new Kontakt();
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.container, fragment)
.commit();

NullPointerException trying to find LinearLayout

I have some code in an Android app which was working fine but is now throwing an NPE when trying to locate a LinearLayout. The first line of the ReadRecords method below is returning a null for the linearLayoutRecords object, which is causing an NPE on the 2nd line:
public class SavedMealsActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_saved_meals);
// enable the home button
ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
// Read saved meal records from the database and display them
readRecords();
}
public void readRecords() {
LinearLayout linearLayoutRecords = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearLayoutRecords);
linearLayoutRecords.removeAllViews();
The layout XML is here:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

Any ideas??

Inflating an image to be front and center of screen

I want to inflate a view with only an image to be above my main layout center screen, so far I only am able to add an inflated view as the first child of my main layout. How can I inflate an imageview to be above my other views and be in the center of the screen?
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.image_preview,(ViewGroup)findViewById(R.id.previewHolder));
((LinearLayout) (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.fullScreen)).addView(layout);//add inflated to main view

If you want to add the preview above fullScreen and root you should modify your parent layout.
LinearLayout arrange its children vertically, while in this case you need to use a FrameLayout or a RelativeLayoutinstead.
Something like this:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:focusable="true">
<!-- your previous content -->
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/fullScreen"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
</LinearLayout>
<TableLayout
android:id="#+id/root"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:stretchColumns="*" >
........................
</TableLayout>
</LinearLayout>
<!-- your preview -->
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/preview"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:visibility="gone"/>
</RelativeLayout>
All you have to do on click is to change the visibility of preview ImageView to visible and set its source accordingly.

sliding menu using jfeinstein10 library

I created a sample application to test how sliding menu works. Shown below in the screenshot is what i get as of now. But when I click on the categories button (shown in image below) I should get a secondary menu as shown in the zomato app's screenshot below. How can I do this ? Am I proceeding in the correct way or not?
my SlidingFragmentActivity :
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
con = this;
setSlidingActionBarEnabled(false);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
sm = getSlidingMenu();
sm.setMode(SlidingMenu.RIGHT);
sm.setShadowDrawable(R.drawable.shadowright);
sm.setTouchModeAbove(SlidingMenu.TOUCHMODE_NONE);
sm.setBehindScrollScale(1.0f);
sm.setShadowWidthRes(R.dimen.shadow_width);
sm.setBehindOffsetRes(R.dimen.slidingmenu_offset);
sm.setFadeDegree(0.5f);
//sm.setSecondaryMenu(R.layout.properties);
//sm.setSecondaryShadowDrawable(R.drawable.shadow);
setTitle("Sliding Bar");
// set the Behind View
setBehindContentView(R.layout.menu_frame);
FragmentTransaction t = this.getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction();
mFrag = new SampleListFragment();
t.replace(R.id.menu_frame, mFrag);
t.commit();
}
my SampleListFragment :
public class SampleListFragment extends SherlockFragment {
private static final String[] Radio_buttons = new String[] { "Distance",
"Rating" };
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list, container, false);
ListView radio_list = (ListView) view.findViewById(R.id.RadioList);
Button categories = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.sampleButton);
radio_list
.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(MainActivity.con,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_single_choice,
Radio_buttons));
radio_list.setItemsCanFocus(true);
radio_list.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE);
categories.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

MainActivity.sm.showSecondaryMenu();

SlidingMenu does NOT do this, zomato uses a custom implementation.
SlidingMenu will let you have a menu on the left and the right, but not two on either side.
I would look at using a view pager or a custom implementation. EitherWay I don't know of anything out of the box to do this. I might be worth looking at Android Views for inspiration.
It's a bit late, but still let me post my answer in case it will help someone in future. If you want to show another menu you can use
setMode(SlidingMenu.LEFT_RIGHT);
setSecondaryMenu(R.layout.yourSecondMenu);
and in your button click
showSecondaryMenu(true);
and perform your actions in that class.
