Cannot resolve method 'getSupportFragmentManager' - Android

Question

How to add getSupportFragmentManager inside the Fragment?

    android.support.v4.app.FragmentTransaction t = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
    t.replace(R.id.calendar1, caldroidFragment);
    t.commit();

getActivity.getSupportFragmentManager is not accepted. Thank you.

In a `Fragment`, it's just `getFragmentManager()`. Unless you're dealing with child `Fragment`s, in which case you'd use `getChildFragmentManager()`. — Mike M., Nov 12 '16 at 03:08

You can have safety check first.

if (getActivity() instanceof FragmentActivity) {
    FragmentActivity activity = (FragmentActivity) getActivity();
    activity.getSupportFragmentManager();
}

We know that fragment is very dependent to Fragment activity so we can call it inside.
