I have an applcation that utilizes the Navigation drawer and I am supposed to change the nav_header values based on the user's input but I am unable to do that as the values never change. But if i pass this values to the content_main
the values show up. this is my layout code
nav_header_main

and the code for in my activity.main is shown below
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
setSupportActionBar(toolbar)
val toggle = ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer_layout, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close)
drawer_layout.addDrawerListener(toggle)
toggle.syncState()
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(userDataChangeReceiver, IntentFilter(BROADCAST_USER_DATA_CHANGED))
}
private val userDataChangeReceiver = object : BroadcastReceiver() {
override fun onReceive(contect: Context?, intent: Intent?) {
if (AuthService.isLoggedIn) {
userNameNavHeader.text = UserDataService.username
mainChannelName.text = UserDataService.email
userEmailNavHeader.text = UserDataService.email
val resourceId = resources.getIdentifier(UserDataService.avatarName, "drawable", packageName)
userImageNavHeader.setImageResource(resourceId)
userImageNavHeader.setBackgroundColor(UserDataService.returnAvatarColor(UserDataService.avatarColor))
loginBtnNavHeader.text = "Logout"
}
}
}
further codes would be supplied based on request. Thanks
