I am developing an application with the navigation drawer.My base activity is Dashboard activity.Thereis a navigation list. And When I click on items in the navigation list it shows some interface using a fragment(replacing the Dashboard Activity).On an AddPatient fragment I am displaying form.I am adding a Date_of_birth field, on which when I click on that date_of_birth(edit-text) view a date picker dialog should popup(making the background a transparent but dark), take the inputs, display it back on the fragment.
Problem is that I m not finding out how to display the date picker on fragment, the base activity(Dashboard Activity) extends Fragment Activity and the AddPatient Fragment extends DailogFragment. The code is given below. I don't know where I am going wrong.
The code for My Dashboard Activity is
public class DashboardActivity extends FragmentActivity {
Fragment fragment;
private DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout;
private ExpandableListView mDrawerList;
private ArrayList<NavDrawerItem> navDrawerItems;
private int groupP, childP;
private SwipeListView swipeListView;
List<CalenderDrawable> list;
List<String> menu_items;
Map<String, List<String>> childCollection;
public static List<String> childList;
public static List<String> childListForConnectedService;
private ActionBarDrawerToggle mDrawerToggle;
Session session;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_dashboard);
session = new Session(this);
fragment = new DashboardFragment();
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.frame_container, fragment).commit();
mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
mDrawerList = (ExpandableListView) findViewById(R.id.list_slidermenu);
createMenuItemList();
createCollection();
final ExpandableListAdapterNew adapter = new ExpandableListAdapterNew(
DashboardActivity.this, menu_items, childCollection);
mDrawerList.setAdapter(adapter);
getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
// getActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
getActionBar().setBackgroundDrawable(
new ColorDrawable(Color.parseColor("#33ffffff")));
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout,
R.drawable.ic_drawer, R.string.empty, R.string.empty) {
public void onDrawerClosed(View view) {
invalidateOptionsMenu(); // Setting, Refresh and Rate App
}
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
invalidateOptionsMenu();
}
};
mDrawerLayout.setDrawerListener(mDrawerToggle);
mDrawerList.setOnGroupExpandListener(new OnGroupExpandListener() {
int previousGroup = -1;
@Override
public void onGroupExpand(int groupPosition) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
menu_items.get(groupPosition) + " Expanded",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
if (groupPosition != previousGroup)
mDrawerList.collapseGroup(previousGroup);
previousGroup = groupPosition;
}
});
mDrawerList.setOnChildClickListener(new OnChildClickListener() {
@Override
public boolean onChildClick(ExpandableListView parent, View v,
int groupPosition, int childPosition, long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Toast.makeText(
getApplicationContext(),
menu_items.get(groupPosition)
+ " : "
+ childCollection.get(
menu_items.get(groupPosition)).get(
childPosition), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
groupP = groupPosition;
childP = childPosition;
switch (groupPosition) {
case 0:
switch (childPosition) {
case 0:
Log.d("CASE Patient ", "Add Patient");
fragment = new AddPatient();
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.frame_container, fragment)
.commit();
break;
case 1:
Log.d("CASE Patient ", "View Patient");
fragment = new DashboardFragment();
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.frame_container, fragment)
.commit();
break;
default:
break;
}
mDrawerLayout.closeDrawer(mDrawerList);
return false;
}
});
}
And the Code for Add Patient Frament On which the Date Picker is to be displayed is this..
public class AddPatient extends Fragment implements OnClickListener {
View rootView;
private EditText edtGender, edtUsername, edtMobNo, edtFname, edtLname;
private static TextView edtDOB;
private TextView Heading, textWelcm;
private Button btnSubmit;
Session session;
public AddPatient() {
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.addpatient, container, false);
init();
Heading = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.textView1);
Heading.setText("Add Patient");
session = new Session(getActivity());
String userType = session.restoreName(Session.USERTPYE);
String userN = session.restoreName(Session.FULLNAME);
textWelcm = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.textWelcm);
if (userType.equals("D")) {
textWelcm
.setText(Html.fromHtml("<b>Welcome, </b>" + "Dr." + userN));
} else if (userType.equals("O")) {
textWelcm.setText(Html
.fromHtml("<b>Welcome, </b>" + "Opt." + userN));
}
return rootView;
}
private void init() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
edtUsername = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edtUsername);
edtMobNo = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edtMobNo);
edtFname = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edtFname);
edtLname = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edtLname);
edtDOB = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edtDOB);
edtDOB.setOnClickListener(this);
edtGender = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.edtGender);
btnSubmit = (Button) rootView.findViewById(R.id.btnSubmit);
btnSubmit.setOnClickListener(this);
}
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.edtDOB:
Log.d("showDatePickerDialogBox", "showDatePickerDialogBox");
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getActivity()
.getLayoutInflater();
final AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(
getActivity());
View customView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.datepicker, null);
alertDialog.setView(customView);
final Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();
final DatePicker datePicker = (DatePicker) customView
.findViewById(R.id.dialog_datepicker);
final TextView dateTextView = (TextView) customView
.findViewById(R.id.dialog_dateview);
final SimpleDateFormat dateViewFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat(
"EEEE, dd.MM.yyyy", Locale.ENGLISH);

}
datePicker.setMinDate(minDate.getTimeInMillis());
// View settings
alertDialog.setTitle("Choose a date");
Calendar choosenDate = Calendar.getInstance();
int year = choosenDate.get(Calendar.YEAR);
int month = choosenDate.get(Calendar.MONTH);
int day = choosenDate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
try {
Date choosenDateFromUI = formatter
.parse(edtDOB.getText().toString());
choosenDate.setTime(choosenDateFromUI);
year = choosenDate.get(Calendar.YEAR);

} catch (Exception e) {

}
Calendar dateToDisplay = Calendar.getInstance();
dateToDisplay.set(year, month, day);
dateTextView.setText(dateViewFormatter.format(dateToDisplay
.getTime()));
// Buttons
alertDialog.setNegativeButton("Go to today",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {

.format(now.getTime()));

}
});
alertDialog.setPositiveButton("Choose",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

});
final AlertDialog dialog = alertDialog.create();
// Initialize datepicker in dialog datepicker
