getActionBar from Fragment with AppCompatLibrary

Question

I'm look for the easiest way to get an ActionBar instance from a Fragment using AppCompatLibrary and API 8.

Already tried things like

getActivity().getSupportActionBar()

but no luck.

Try to cast it:

((YourActivity)getActivity()).getSupportActionBar()

convert to AppCompatActivity and you won't have problems except you don't use AppCompatActivity – alexanderktx Apr 23 '19 at 22:26
