I'm beginner in Android development & I am making a calculator app and want to update history in second fragment but not able to find a perfect solution for updating ListView in second fragment. I tried many solutions but none of them worked properly. I'm using ViewPager to swipe between calculator and history fragments. I tired bundle class but if I use bundle in OnCreat method of first Fragment(CalculatorFragment) with ViewPager it shows me blank screen after starting an App & if I use Bundle class in Equal Button it crashes app. here I am passing id of viewPager as Container of fragments.
what I want to achive. I want to update history in second fragment(HistoryFragment) when ever "=" button is clicked.
here's a sample code of what I have done in my code so far.
MainActivity.java
package com.example.calculatorslide;
import androidx.annotation.RequiresApi;
import androidx.appcompat.app.ActionBar;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.viewpager.widget.ViewPager;
import android.annotation.SuppressLint;
import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ViewPager viewPager;
pageAdapter pageAdapter;
@RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
@SuppressLint({"SetTextI18n", "UseCompatLoadingForDrawables"})
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
viewPager = findViewById(R.id.viewPager);
//Get rid of ActionBar
ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
assert actionBar != null;
actionBar.hide();
pageAdapter = new pageAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager(), 2);
viewPager.setAdapter(pageAdapter);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.ViewPager,
new Calculatorfragment()).commit;
}
}
Example of what I am doing in when Equal button is clicked in CalculatorFragment
public void Equals() {
String calc = etCalc.getText().toString();
if (calc.split("\\+").length == 2) {
String[] calculation = calc.split("\\+");
String Ans = String.valueOf(Double.parseDouble(calculation[0]) + Double.parseDouble(calculation[1]));
etCalc.setText(Ans);
tvCalc.setText(calc);
HistoryFragment fragment = new HistoryFragment();
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("key", calc+"="+Ans);
fragment.setArguments(bundle);
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.ViewPager, fragment).commit;
}
}
HistoryFragment.java
package com.example.calculatorslide;
import android.os.Bundle;
import androidx.fragment.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ListView;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class HistoryFragment extends Fragment {
ListView history;
ArrayList<HistoryList> historyLists;
String History="";
View rootView;
public View onCreat(Bundle savedInstanceState){
Bundle bumdle = getArguments();
if (bundle != null)
String value = bundle.getString("key");
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
final ArrayList<HistoryList> historyLists = new ArrayList<>();
if(History.split("=").length==2){
historyLists.add(new HistoryList(History.split("=")[0],History.split("=")[1]));
}
historyLists.add(new HistoryList("Example", "Example"));
historyLists.add(new HistoryList("23+5", "28"));
HistoryAdapter adapter = new HistoryAdapter(getActivity(), historyLists);
rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_history, container, false);
ListView listView = rootView.findViewById(R.id.history);
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
return rootView;
}
}
here in historyLists taking two parameters for calculation and answer to display in ListView.
