I am trying to implement a navigation drawer and use it in multiple activities. But when I try to start another activity (when I click on the item in the navigation drawer), the app crashes and displays a force close message. Here is my Main activity called Home:
package com.radoslav.socialreminder;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class Home extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationDrawerCallbacks {
/**
* Fragment managing the behaviors, interactions and presentation of the navigation drawer.
*/
private NavigationDrawerFragment mNavigationDrawerFragment;
private Toolbar mToolbar;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home_new);
mToolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar_actionbar);
setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);
mNavigationDrawerFragment = (NavigationDrawerFragment)
getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_drawer);
// Set up the drawer.
mNavigationDrawerFragment.setup(R.id.fragment_drawer, (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer), mToolbar);
}
@Override
public void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position) {
// update the main content by replacing fragments
Toast.makeText(this, "Menu item selected -> " + position, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent intent;
if(position == 0)
{
}
else if(position == 1)
{
try {
intent = new Intent(Home.this, MyTasks.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println("exception occurred: " + e);
}
}
else if(position == 2)
{
intent = new Intent(Home.this, Group_tasks.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
else if(position == 3)
{
intent = new Intent(Home.this, What_do_I_miss.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(this, "An error has occurred!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
if (mNavigationDrawerFragment.isDrawerOpen())
mNavigationDrawerFragment.closeDrawer();
else
super.onBackPressed();
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
if (!mNavigationDrawerFragment.isDrawerOpen()) {
// Only show items in the action bar relevant to this screen
// if the drawer is not showing. Otherwise, let the drawer
// decide what to show in the action bar.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.home_new, menu);
return true;
}
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
Here is my interface:
package com.radoslav.socialreminder;
public interface NavigationDrawerCallbacks {
void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position);
}
NavigationDrawerAdapter:
package com.radoslav.socialreminder;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.TextView;
import java.util.List;
public class NavigationDrawerAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<NavigationDrawerAdapter.ViewHolder> {
private List<NavigationItem> mData;
private NavigationDrawerCallbacks mNavigationDrawerCallbacks;
private View mSelectedView;
private int mSelectedPosition;
public NavigationDrawerAdapter(List<NavigationItem> data) {
mData = data;
}
public NavigationDrawerCallbacks getNavigationDrawerCallbacks() {
return mNavigationDrawerCallbacks;
}
public void setNavigationDrawerCallbacks(NavigationDrawerCallbacks navigationDrawerCallbacks) {
mNavigationDrawerCallbacks = navigationDrawerCallbacks;
}
@Override
public NavigationDrawerAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
View v = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.drawer_row, viewGroup, false);
final ViewHolder viewHolder = new ViewHolder(v);
viewHolder.itemView.setClickable(true);
viewHolder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (mSelectedView != null) {
mSelectedView.setSelected(false);
}
mSelectedPosition = viewHolder.getPosition();
v.setSelected(true);
mSelectedView = v;
if (mNavigationDrawerCallbacks != null)
mNavigationDrawerCallbacks.onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(viewHolder.getPosition());
}
}
);
viewHolder.itemView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.row_selector);
return viewHolder;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(NavigationDrawerAdapter.ViewHolder viewHolder, int i) {
viewHolder.textView.setText(mData.get(i).getText());
viewHolder.textView.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(mData.get(i).getDrawable(), null, null, null);
if (mSelectedPosition == i) {
if (mSelectedView != null) {
mSelectedView.setSelected(false);
}
mSelectedPosition = i;
mSelectedView = viewHolder.itemView;
mSelectedView.setSelected(true);
}
}
public void selectPosition(int position) {
mSelectedPosition = position;
notifyItemChanged(position);
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return mData != null ? mData.size() : 0;
}
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
