I am very new to java and android development. So, even after reading many tutorials(e.g. this, this), I can't figure out how to call a fragment from a bottomnevigationmenu item.
Currently, I have:
MainActivity.java
package com.example.myapplication;
import android.app.FragmentTransaction;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.annotation.NonNull;
import android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private void loadCalFragment() {
String string1="Hello",string2 = "Hii";
CalFragment fragment = CalFragment.newInstance(string1,string2);
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.fragment_frame, fragment);
ft.commit();
}
private TextView mTextMessage;
private BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener
= new BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
@Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
Context context = getApplicationContext();
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.navigation_home:
mTextMessage.setText(R.string.title_home);
Toast toasth = Toast.makeText(context , R.string.title_home, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toasth.show();
return true;
case R.id.navigation_dashboard:
mTextMessage.setText(R.string.title_dashboard);
Toast toastd = Toast.makeText(context , R.string.title_dashboard, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toastd.show();
loadCalFragment();
return true;
case R.id.navigation_notifications:
mTextMessage.setText(R.string.title_location);
Toast toastn = Toast.makeText(context , R.string.title_location, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toastn.show();
return true;
}
return false;
}
};
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mTextMessage = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.message);
BottomNavigationView navigation = (BottomNavigationView) findViewById(R.id.navigation);
navigation.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener);
}
}
activaty_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:id="@+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.example.myapplication.MainActivity">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/message"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"

android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"

app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView
android:id="@+id/navigation"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="0dp"
android:layout_marginStart="0dp"
android:background="?android:attr/windowBackground"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:menu="@menu/navigation" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
Now, when I am adding a fragment using android-studio, it has created the xml file. My target is to create a datepicker in this fragment and show it. But, I don't know how to do that.
fragment_cal.xml
<FrameLayout 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"
tools:context="com.example.myapplication.CalFragment">
<!-- TODO: Update blank fragment layout -->
<DatePicker
android:id="@+id/datePicker"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:calendarViewShown="false"
android:datePickerMode="spinner" />
</FrameLayout>
and a corresponding java file:
calFragment.java
package com.example.myapplication;
import android.content.Context;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
/**
* A simple {@link Fragment} subclass.
* Activities that contain this fragment must implement the
* {@link CalFragment.OnFragmentInteractionListener} interface
* to handle interaction events.
* Use the {@link CalFragment#newInstance} factory method to
* create an instance of this fragment.
*/
public class CalFragment extends Fragment {
// TODO: Rename parameter arguments, choose names that match
// the fragment initialization parameters, e.g. ARG_ITEM_NUMBER
private static final String ARG_PARAM1 = "param1";
private static final String ARG_PARAM2 = "param2";
// TODO: Rename and change types of parameters
private String mParam1;
private String mParam2;
private OnFragmentInteractionListener mListener;
public CalFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
/**
* Use this factory method to create a new instance of
* this fragment using the provided parameters.
*
* @param param1 Parameter 1.
* @param param2 Parameter 2.
* @return A new instance of fragment CalFragment.
*/
// TODO: Rename and change types and number of parameters
public static CalFragment newInstance(String param1, String param2) {
CalFragment fragment = new CalFragment();
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putString(ARG_PARAM1, param1);
args.putString(ARG_PARAM2, param2);
fragment.setArguments(args);
return fragment;
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
if (getArguments() != null) {
mParam1 = getArguments().getString(ARG_PARAM1);
mParam2 = getArguments().getString(ARG_PARAM2);
}
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_cal, container, false);
}
// TODO: Rename method, update argument and hook method into UI event
public void onButtonPressed(Uri uri) {
if (mListener != null) {
mListener.onFragmentInteraction(uri);
}
}
@Override
public void onAttach(Context context) {
super.onAttach(context);
if (context instanceof OnFragmentInteractionListener) {
mListener = (OnFragmentInteractionListener) context;
} else {
throw new RuntimeException(context.toString()
+ " must implement OnFragmentInteractionListener");
}
}
@Override
public void onDetach() {
super.onDetach();
mListener = null;
}
/**

* fragment to allow an interaction in this fragment to be communicated

public interface OnFragmentInteractionListener {
// TODO: Update argument type and name
void onFragmentInteraction(Uri uri);
}
}
My AndroidManifest.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.myapplication">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"

When I am trying to attach the CalFragment() call to the nevigation menu as:
case R.id.navigation_dashboard:
mTextMessage.setText(R.string.title_dashboard);
Toast toastd = Toast.makeText(context , R.string.title_dashboard, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toastd.show();
CalFragment();
return true;
its giving error: Error:(32, 21) error: cannot find symbol method CalFragment()
I will be grateful if somebody kindly help me in it.
