I want to launch a new fragment to view some data. Currently, I have a main activity that has a bunch of actionbar tabs, each of which is a fragment. So, within a tab fragment, I have a button, chartsButton. I have my onclicklistener all set for it, and here's the onClick method:
public OnClickListener chartsListener = new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent chartFragment = new Intent();
startActivity(chartFragment);
}
};
Now, as I said, this listener is within a class that extends Fragment. So, I want to launch a new fragment (chartsFragment) via the intent to replace the whole screen. When the user clicks back, it'll bring them back to the tabs and main activity. Here's my chart fragment:
public class chartsFragment extends Fragment {
public View onCreateView() {
//LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
return (inflater.inflate(R.layout.chartfragment, null));
}
}
The current error I am dealing with: "android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { }". That's fine, I understand that I could use getActivity().startActivity(chartsFragment), but that results in the same error. I suppose what I am looking for here, is how do I launch an intent from within a fragment that results in opening a new fragment?
You cannot open new fragments. Fragments need to be always hosted by an activity. If the fragment is in the same activity (eg tabs) then the back key navigation is going to be tricky I am assuming that you want to open a new screen with that fragment.
So you would simply create a new activity and put the new fragment in there. That activity would then react to the intent either explicitly via the activity class or implicitly via intent filter

The answer to your problem is easy: replace the current Fragment
with the new Fragment
and push transaction onto the backstack. This preserves back button behaviour...
Creating a new Activity
really defeats the whole purpose to use fragments anyway...very counter productive.
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Create new fragment and transaction
Fragment newFragment = new chartsFragment();
// consider using Java coding conventions (upper first char class names!!!)
FragmentTransaction transaction = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
// Replace whatever is in the fragment_container view with this fragment,
// and add the transaction to the back stack
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, newFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit();
}

Try this it may help you:
public void ButtonClick(View view) {
Fragment mFragment = new YourNextFragment();
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, mFragment).commit();
}
Try this it may help you:
private void changeFragment(Fragment targetFragment){
getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.main_fragment, targetFragment, "fragment")
.setTransitionStyle(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_FADE)
.commit();
}
