I am a beginner Android developer. I am trying to get my head around the ViewPager. Before I was trying to work with this example:
http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/android-user-interface-design-horizontal-view-paging/
I had the views working, but could not get functionality working within that, and I was told that I need to use Fragments within the ViewPager.
I went with this tutorial instead:
http://tamsler.blogspot.co.uk/2011/11/android-viewpager-and-fragments-part-ii.html
I have got the basics of a ViewPager with a Fragment working:
FragmentPagerActivity.java
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter;
import android.support.v4.view.ViewPager;
public class FragmentPagerActivity extends FragmentActivity {
private static final int NUMBER_OF_PAGES = 10;
private ViewPager mViewPager;
private MyFragmentPagerAdapter mMyFragmentPagerAdapter;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
mMyFragmentPagerAdapter = new MyFragmentPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
mViewPager.setAdapter(mMyFragmentPagerAdapter);
}
private static class MyFragmentPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public MyFragmentPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
@Override
public Fragment getItem(int index) {
return PageFragment.newInstance("My Message " + index);
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return NUMBER_OF_PAGES;
}
}
}
PageFragment.java:
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class PageFragment extends Fragment {
public static PageFragment newInstance(String title) {
PageFragment pageFragment = new PageFragment();
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("title", title);
pageFragment.setArguments(bundle);
return pageFragment;
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment, container, false);
TextView textView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.textView1);
textView.setText(getArguments().getString("title"));
return view;
}
}
main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="@+id/viewpager"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
fragment.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="TextView" />
</LinearLayout>
I want to be able to replace the current layout within the ViewPager with 7 of my own layouts that already exist and add functionality to the layouts using Fragments. What can I do with the code that I already have and the changes to make to get this properly working?
If there are any examples of a ViewPager with Fragments available online as well rather than just going briefly over it like the do in the Adroid Developers blog, I will be very grateful.
