How to initialize text view in fragment

Question

public class Device extends Fragment {
TextView textv;

    public Device() {

        // Required empty public constructor
    }


    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        textv = this.getView().findViewById(R.id.tv1);
        textv.setText(Build.PRODUCT);


        return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_device, container, false);

    }


}

This gives me this error:

Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.view.View android.view.View.findViewById(int)' on a null object reference

Try doing getActivity().findViewById() instead of this.getView().findViewById() — Karan Mehta, Feb 11 '20 at 06:04

try below by overriding onViewCreated

    @Override
    public void onViewCreated(View view, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
        textv = view.findViewById(R.id.tv1);
        textv.setText(Build.PRODUCT);

    }

You can do like this in your fragment onCreateView() method

 View rootView;
 @Override
 public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                     Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      rootView= inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_device, container, false);   
      initViews();
      return rootView;
 }

public void initViews(){
      textv = rootView.findViewById(R.id.tv1);
      textv.setText(Build.PRODUCT);
}
