Open Android Navigation Drawer from an activity class - java

I am working on android Navigation Drawer and through their documentation it looks like, the drawer can only extend Fragment Activity, so that to open drawer from all my activities, I need to make all my activities a fragment, which is not a feasible solution.
Is there a way I can open a drawer that extends FragmentActivity from an Activity?
When I try to extend my drawer activity from Activity class, and another activity that will open the drawer extending the draweractivity class (here SlideMenuActivity), the app crashes giving NullPointerException.
Below is the code for opening a drawer layout but once the first activity launches, I am unable to access the drawer.
App is crashing on syncState point in onPostCreate method
#Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
getActionDrawerToggle().syncState();
}
public class SlideMenuActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnItemClickListener
{
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setDrawerLayout();
setDrawerList();
if (savedInstanceState == null)
{
getDrawerListView().setSelectionAfterHeaderView();
getDrawerListView().setSelection(1);
selectItem(1);
}

// enable ActionBar app icon to behave as action to toggle navigation drawer
getDrawerView().setDrawerListener(getActionDrawerToggle());
}

I too was looking through the documentation and thought that I had to switch all my activities into fragments. Just to clear it up, this is simply not the case. You can have as many elements under the linear layout or whatever as needed.
For example if your base activity without the appdrawer is:
<RelativeLayout>
<TextView>
</TextView>
<Button>
<Button>
</RelativeLayout>
Simply do
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
<RelativeLayout>
<TextView>
</TextView>
<Button>
<Button>
</RelativeLayout>
<ListView>
</ListView>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

Supposedly you can have a main activity where you put the navigation drawer and all sub activity classes get to use the drawer, but what i don't understand is how do you avoid repeating the layout containing the drawerfor all sub activities.

Navigation Drawers do NOT need to be in a fragment. You can create a class that will then be extended from all of your activities (as you were attempting to do).
public class SlideMenuActivity extends Activity{..}
your main activity would look like
public class MainActivity extends SlideMenuActivity{..}
The SlideMenuActivity can be implemented in the same way as described in creating a navigation activity.
All of your XML pages would include this:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#FFFFFF" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="240dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:background="#111"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="#CCCCCC"
android:dividerHeight="1dp" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
Without seeing your logcat output, I am not sure why you are receiving an error, but hopefully this can help you get through a bit more of the navigation drawer code.

There's really no (practical) way to make ActionBarDrawerToggle do that, as it is always set on the start/left-side navigation button. However, that class is basically just a DrawerListener that manages a specialized Drawable, and wires an ImageButton to the DrawerLayout. We can put together something similar for an end/right-side drawer with an ImageButton that we can place on that same side in a Toolbar (which is required for this example).
public class EndDrawerToggle implements DrawerLayout.DrawerListener {
private final DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
private final AppCompatImageButton toggleButton;
private final int openDrawerContentDescRes;
private final int closeDrawerContentDescRes;
private DrawerArrowDrawable arrowDrawable;
public EndDrawerToggle(DrawerLayout drawerLayout, Toolbar toolbar,
int openDrawerContentDescRes, int closeDrawerContentDescRes) {
this.drawerLayout = drawerLayout;
this.openDrawerContentDescRes = openDrawerContentDescRes;
this.closeDrawerContentDescRes = closeDrawerContentDescRes;
toggleButton = new AppCompatImageButton(toolbar.getContext(), null,
R.attr.toolbarNavigationButtonStyle);
toolbar.addView(toggleButton, new Toolbar.LayoutParams(GravityCompat.END));
toggleButton.setOnClickListener(v -> toggle());
loadDrawerArrowDrawable();
}
public void syncState() {
if (drawerLayout.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.END)) {
setPosition(1f);
} else {
setPosition(0f);
}
}
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
loadDrawerArrowDrawable();
syncState();
}
#Override
public void onDrawerSlide(#NonNull View drawerView, float slideOffset) {
setPosition(Math.min(1f, Math.max(0f, slideOffset)));
}
#Override
public void onDrawerOpened(#NonNull View drawerView) {
setPosition(1f);
}
#Override
public void onDrawerClosed(#NonNull View drawerView) {
setPosition(0f);
}
#Override
public void onDrawerStateChanged(int newState) {}
private void loadDrawerArrowDrawable() {
arrowDrawable = new DrawerArrowDrawable(toggleButton.getContext());
arrowDrawable.setDirection(DrawerArrowDrawable.ARROW_DIRECTION_END);
toggleButton.setImageDrawable(arrowDrawable);
}
private void toggle() {
final int drawerLockMode = drawerLayout.getDrawerLockMode(GravityCompat.END);
if (drawerLayout.isDrawerVisible(GravityCompat.END)
&& (drawerLockMode != DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_OPEN)) {
drawerLayout.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.END);
} else if (drawerLockMode != DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED) {
drawerLayout.openDrawer(GravityCompat.END);
}
}
private void setPosition(float position) {
if (position == 1f) {
arrowDrawable.setVerticalMirror(true);
setContentDescription(closeDrawerContentDescRes);
} else if (position == 0f) {
arrowDrawable.setVerticalMirror(false);
setContentDescription(openDrawerContentDescRes);
}
arrowDrawable.setProgress(position);
}
private void setContentDescription(int resId) {
toggleButton.setContentDescription(toggleButton.getContext().getText(resId));
}
}
The EndDrawerToggle class works exactly the same way as ActionBarDrawerToggle does when used with a Toolbar (except the constructor call doesn't need an Activity argument): first instantiate the toggle, then add it as a DrawerListener, and sync it in the Activity's onPostCreate() method. If you're already overriding the Activity's onConfigurationChanged() method, you'll want to call the toggle's corresponding method there, like you would for an ActionBarDrawerToggle.
private EndDrawerToggle drawerToggle;
public void initNavigationDrawer() {
...
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer);
drawerToggle = new EndDrawerToggle(drawerLayout,
toolbar,
R.string.drawer_open,
R.string.drawer_close);
drawerLayout.addDrawerListener(drawerToggle);
}
#Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
drawerToggle.syncState();
}
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
drawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}
If you have two drawers and need to use ActionBarDrawerToggle and EndDrawerToggle simultaneously, it is possible, but we'll need to handle intercepting and dispatching drawer motion events to the correct toggle.
If you prefer fewer classes, you could subclass ActionBarDrawerToggle and merge EndDrawerToggle's functionality into it, dispatching each DrawerListener method call either to the super class, or to the local end toggle code.
However, composition is arguably much cleaner here, and it will let us use EndDrawerToggle as is. This example is a DrawerListener that relays syncState() and onConfigurationChanged() calls to each toggle, but dispatches the listener method calls only to the appropriate one, depending on which drawer is moving.
public class DualDrawerToggle implements DrawerLayout.DrawerListener {
private final DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
private final Toolbar toolbar;
private final ActionBarDrawerToggle actionBarDrawerToggle;
private final EndDrawerToggle endDrawerToggle;
public DualDrawerToggle(Activity activity, DrawerLayout drawerLayout, Toolbar toolbar,
int startDrawerOpenContDescRes, int startDrawerCloseContDescRes,
int endDrawerOpenContDescRes, int endDrawerCloseContDescRes) {
this.drawerLayout = drawerLayout;
this.toolbar = toolbar;
this.actionBarDrawerToggle =
new ActionBarDrawerToggle(activity, drawerLayout, toolbar,
startDrawerOpenContDescRes, startDrawerCloseContDescRes);
this.endDrawerToggle =
new EndDrawerToggle(drawerLayout, toolbar,
endDrawerOpenContDescRes, endDrawerCloseContDescRes);
}
public void syncState() {
actionBarDrawerToggle.syncState();
endDrawerToggle.syncState();
}
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
actionBarDrawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
// Fixes bug in ABDT, which only reloads the up nav indicator, for some reason.
final DrawerArrowDrawable dad = new DrawerArrowDrawable(toolbar.getContext());
actionBarDrawerToggle.setDrawerArrowDrawable(dad);
endDrawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}
#Override
public void onDrawerSlide(#NonNull View drawerView, float slideOffset) {
if (isStartDrawerView(drawerView, drawerLayout.getLayoutDirection())) {
actionBarDrawerToggle.onDrawerSlide(drawerView, slideOffset);
} else {
endDrawerToggle.onDrawerSlide(drawerView, slideOffset);
}
}
#Override
public void onDrawerOpened(#NonNull View drawerView) {
if (isStartDrawerView(drawerView, drawerLayout.getLayoutDirection())) {
actionBarDrawerToggle.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
} else {
endDrawerToggle.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
}
}
#Override
public void onDrawerClosed(#NonNull View drawerView) {
if (isStartDrawerView(drawerView, drawerLayout.getLayoutDirection())) {
actionBarDrawerToggle.onDrawerClosed(drawerView);
} else {
endDrawerToggle.onDrawerClosed(drawerView);
}
}
#Override
public void onDrawerStateChanged(int newState) {}
#SuppressLint("RtlHardcoded")
static boolean isStartDrawerView(View drawerView, int layoutDirection) {
final int gravity = ((DrawerLayout.LayoutParams) drawerView.getLayoutParams()).gravity;
final int horizontalGravity = gravity & GravityCompat.RELATIVE_HORIZONTAL_GRAVITY_MASK;
if ((horizontalGravity & GravityCompat.RELATIVE_LAYOUT_DIRECTION) > 0) {
return horizontalGravity == GravityCompat.START;
} else {
if (layoutDirection == View.LAYOUT_DIRECTION_RTL) {
return horizontalGravity == Gravity.RIGHT;
} else {
return horizontalGravity == Gravity.LEFT;
}
}
}
}
Again, DualDrawerToggle works exactly the same way as ActionBarDrawerToggle does when used with a Toolbar, except for the extra content description resource IDs in the constructor.
Do note that the one DualDrawerToggle creates and manages both other toggles internally. You don't need to set up any other toggle instances in your Activity; just the DualDrawerToggle.
Notes:
If you read through the code, you'll see that EndDrawerToggle – and therefore also DualDrawerToggle – can be readily adapted to put a toggle on pretty much anything that can display a Drawable and register clicks; e.g., a FloatingActionButton, an options menu item, a TextView's compound drawable, etc. Simply replace the AppCompatImageButton with your target UI component, which can be passed in the constructor in place of the Toolbar, since the toggle won't be added to that anymore.
Additionally, this could be modified to work with the start/left-aligned drawer, too – completely replacing ActionBarDrawerToggle – so that its toggle could be placed on those various components, as well.
The AppCompatImageButton used here is a regular child of the Toolbar. If you're using a menu on the Toolbar, that menu will take precedence in the layout, and push the toggle inward. To keep it on the outside, you can modify the class as described above to set the toggle on an action menu item. I've an example of that in my answer here.
That menu item example might also be useful if your design requires you use the decor-supplied ActionBar in lieu of your own Toolbar. Though ActionBarDrawerToggle can work with a decor-supplied ActionBar, this example can not, as is.
In your android manifest add this line:
android:supportsRtl="true"
to your application, like so:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
Then in your onCreate method, add this line:
getWindow().getDecorView().setLayoutDirection(View.LAYOUT_DIRECTION_RTL);
WARNING::: This only works for SdkVersion 17+, so if your application targets a lower minimum SDK, you will have to create a custom menu and override the OnCreateOptions method(Unless there's another way which I'm not aware of, which is definitely possible).

InflateException when creating Navigation Drawer

I created an android application using ButterKnife. I wanted to add an activity with Navigation bar . So I used , Navigation Drawer Activityin android studio.
Then I tried to launch it using another activity .Like this ,
Intent intent = new Intent(this, AddInfoActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
Then I got following error message.

NOTE :- These layout files and NavigationDrawerFragment.java were generated by Android Studio.
Have any idea about this problem ?
You are using getFragmentManager() to get the fragment manager. You need to get SupportFragmentManager if you are extending AppCompatActivity by your BaseActivity.
#Override
public void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position) {
// update the main content by replacing fragments
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.container, PlaceholderFragment.newInstance(position + 1))
.commit();
}
Note: While using support packages you need to use SupportFragmentManager.

FragmentTabHost - No tab known for tag null

Few days ago I implemented TabHostFramgent in a Fragment with a NavigationDrawer, and I faced with a problem that is the following error :
java.lang.IllegalStateException: No tab known for tag null
The thing is that all works perfectly since my first item list of my NavigationDrawer is my TabHostFragment, so it works perfect, but the problem is when I go in example to the second item and then I want to go back to the first item, every time that I try so it crashes.
I was searching everywhere, here in SO, code.google.com, etc... and I still don't get the proper answer.
My tab_host_test_2.xmllooks like :
<android.support.v4.app.FragmentTabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TabWidget
android:id="#android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/realtabcontent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.app.FragmentTabHost>

EDIT
The answer of #Y.S., was kinda different about what I was asking for, but it could be a solution, but it didn't worked fine at all, and the NavigationDrawer is under the TabHostFragment, etc... I don't want to change anything of my layout.
As the error suggests
Java : illegal state exception : no tab known for tag null
you tried to initialise TabHost but TabHost was null.
Try the code that I have used to initialise the TabHost and it works fine. Keep you code in onCreateView(). This problem occurs when you try to setup your FragmentTabHost in onViewCreated(), which is called too late. Try to set it up in onCreateView(), and add at least one tab before returning the view Object.
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Create FragmentTabHost
mTabHost = new FragmentTabHost(getActivity());
// Locate fragment1.xml to create FragmentTabHost
mTabHost.setup(getActivity(), getChildFragmentManager(), R.layout.fragment1);
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("groups").setIndicator("",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.tab_group_icon)),FragmentTab1.class, null);
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("contacts").setIndicator("",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.tab_user_icon)),FragmentTab2.class, null);
MainActivity.fabButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
return mTabHost;
}
change Layout to:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<android.support.v4.app.FragmentTabHost
android:id="#android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0" />
</android.support.v4.app.FragmentTabHost>
</LinearLayout>
Hope it helps.
There is another way to display tabs which can be used here.
Define TabHostFragment like this:
public class TabHostFragment extends Fragment implements ActionBar.TabListener{
public TabHostFragment(){
}
AppSectionsPagerAdapter mAppSectionsPagerAdapter;
ViewPager mViewPager;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.tab_host_test2, container, false);
return rootView;
}
#Override
public void onViewCreated(View view, Bundle savedInstanceState){
mAppSectionsPagerAdapter = new AppSectionsPagerAdapter(getChildFragmentManager());
final ActionBar actionBar = ((FragmentActivity)getActivity()).getSupportActionBar();
actionBar.setHomeButtonEnabled(false);
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
mViewPager = (ViewPager) view.findViewById(R.id.pager);
mViewPager.setAdapter(mAppSectionsPagerAdapter);
mViewPager.setOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.SimpleOnPageChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onPageSelected(int position) {
actionBar.setSelectedNavigationItem(position);
}
});
for (int i = 0; i < mAppSectionsPagerAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
actionBar.addTab(
actionBar.newTab()
.setText(mAppSectionsPagerAdapter.getPageTitle(i))
.setTabListener(this));
}
}
#Override
public void onTabUnselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
}
#Override
public void onTabSelected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
mViewPager.setCurrentItem(tab.getPosition());
}
#Override
public void onTabReselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
}
public static class AppSectionsPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public AppSectionsPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int i) {
Fragment f = null;
switch (i) {
case 0:
f = new MisOfertasFragment();
break;
case 1:
f = new RecomendacionesFragment();
break;
}
return f;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return 2;
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return getFragmentTitle(position);
}
private String getFragmentTitle(int position){
if(position == 0)
return "Tab 1";
else if(position == 1)
return "Tab 2";
else
return "";
}
}
}
Define tab_host_test2.xml like this:
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/pager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
Rest of the code remains the same.
Try this. This should work.
EDIT:
Add this to the displayView() method:
if(position != 0)
getSupportActionBar().setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD);
specify in .xml file where you are using this TabHostFragment(complete path like com.my.TabHostFragment). like
<com.my.TabHostFragment
android:id="#+id/fragmentId"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
/>

I want to send a query to a database function based on the item clicks of drawer list and based on the query result my another list view in main activity will be populated..
Basically what i tried till now is assigning a different string holding the query based on the item click into the String type variable "query" and passing it as a parameter to a function of database who processes it as a rawQuery and retrieves result...
Due to some errors which am not able to detect it is throwing Null Pointer Exception...
Following is the code for MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity
implements NavigationDrawerFragment.NavigationDrawerCallbacks {
private NavigationDrawerFragment mNavigationDrawerFragment;
private CharSequence mTitle;
private Cursor c;
public MyDatabaseHandler dbOpen;
private String query;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mNavigationDrawerFragment =
(NavigationDrawFragment)
getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.navigation_drawer);
mTitle = getTitle();
mNavigationDrawerFragment.setUp(
R.id.navigation_drawer,
(DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout));
dbOpen = new MyDatabaseHandler(this);
c = dbOpen.getListContent(query);
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
lv.setAdapter(new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,R.layout.topic_list_each_row,
c,new String[]{MyDatabaseHandler.KEY_UTOPICNAME,MyDatabaseHandler.KEY_UNAME },
new int[] {R.id.topicname,R.id.unitname} ,0));
}
#Override
public void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position) {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.container, PlaceholderFragment.newInstance(position + 1))
.commit();
}
//here where i have thought of passing string into query variable
public void onSectionAttached(int number) {
switch (number) {
case 1:
query = "SELECT * FROM cosmtable ORDER BY utopicname";
break;
...............
..............
}}
public void restoreActionBar() {
ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_STANDARD);
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(true);
actionBar.setTitle(mTitle);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
if (!mNavigationDrawerFragment.isDrawerOpen()) {
// Only show items in the action bar relevant to this screen
// if the drawer is not showing. Otherwise, let the drawer
// decide what to show in the action bar.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
restoreActionBar();
return true;
}
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

Please help me out in finding a way to achieve the results..
If further details needed then please let me know..
Thank You
UPDATE
One thing i Figured out in this is i was trying to write the query at wrong place i.e., the query variable shouldn't be assigned with a value at onAttach event...
SO i changed the code in Main Activity as follows-
public void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position) {
// update the main content by replacing fragments
//FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
//fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
// .replace(R.id.container, PlaceholderFragment.newInstance(position))
// .commit();
try
{
switch(position)
{
case 0:
query = "SELECT * FROM cosmtable ORDER BY topic_name";
c = dbOpen.getListContent(query);
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
lv.setAdapter(new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,R.layout.topic_list_each_row,c,
new String[]{MyDatabasehandler.KEY_UTOPICNAME,MyDatabaseHandler.KEY_UNAME},
new int[] {R.id.topicname,R.id.unitname} ,0));
break;
.............................................
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("error on fragment", "creating the mainScreen");
}
finally {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.container, PlaceholderFragment.newInstance(position + 1 ))
.commit();}}
And after doing this the content to be loaded from first item click of navigation drawer doesn't appears when the application is first launched....
it appears only when the item is clicked...
i want it to appear on application launch...
Do i need to create separate methods in my database handler class to return separate query results for each switch case??
Basically what i did is i created a separate function which can manipulate the query string accordingly the position of each element of navigation drawer and then it is being passed to get cursor data function in database handler and then the query results being back thrown to the simple cursor adapter in MainActivity....
The other thing is did for the problem of blank screen when the application is launched is i called the same function which manipulating the database query for the first element...
This is giving me my desired outputs..
Still if there is another good to go method out there then i am open to know that approach too.
for till now i will accept this as a answer..

Using one navigation drawer that shows different options depending on the activity that is currently showing

I am trying to implement a navigation drawer in a BaseActivity, that shows different options depending on the activity that is currently showing. For that, I developed a BaseActivity, that implements the navigation drawer, and decides what to show, depending on the activity that is currently showing. The purpose of this, is to make all other activities that need to use the navigation drawer, expand the BaseActivity.
The following code, shows no errors, but the navigation drawer shows itself completely empty, and does not show when I click the 'home' button, neither the 'menu' button, a functionality that I implemented with the 'onKeyDown' method. It just shows, when I use the following gesture: move the finger from the left to the right in the left side of the screen.
When I do the same in each class I need, instead of using a BaseActivity, everything works perfeclty fine.
I have been trying this for days now and I still do not understand why, the content of the navigation drawer is still not showing. I would appreciate some help please. Thanks in advance.
Here, the core classes of the problem:
BaseActivity.java
public abstract class BaseActivity extends ActionBarActivity
{
public DrawerLayout drawerLayout = null;
public ActionBarDrawerToggle drawerToggle = null;
public Activity currentActivity = null;
public ArrayList<Item> navDrawerItems = new ArrayList<Item>();
public ItemListAdapter adapter = null;
public ListView drawerList = null;
int id = 0;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState, int resLayoutID)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(resLayoutID);
currentActivity = this;
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(currentActivity,
drawerLayout,
R.drawable.ic_drawer,
R.string.open_menu,
R.string.close_menu)
{
public void onDrawerClosed(View view)
{
Log.e("", "Close drawer");
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(getTitle());
ActivityCompat.invalidateOptionsMenu(currentActivity);
}
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView)
{
Log.e("", "Open drawer");
getSupportActionBar().setTitle(getTitle());
ActivityCompat.invalidateOptionsMenu(currentActivity);
}
};
drawerLayout.setDrawerListener(drawerToggle);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
// Populate navigation drawer depending on the activity
// that is currently showing.
if (this.getClass().getSimpleName().equals("Z"))
setUpNavigationForZActivity();
}
private void setUpNavigationForZActivity()
{
Log.e("", "In setUpNavigationForZActivity");
// Prepare list items.
id = R.string.title_activity_A;
navDrawerItems.add(new NavigationDrawerItem(getString(id), Utils.activityIcon().get(id)));
id = R.string.title_activity_B;
navDrawerItems.add(new NavigationDrawerItem(getString(id), Utils.activityIcon().get(id)));
// Populate view.
drawerList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.left_menu);
adapter = new ItemListAdapter(currentActivity, navDrawerItems;
drawerList.setAdapter(adapter);
drawerList.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener()
{
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position,
long id)
{
Intent intent = null;
switch(position)
{
case 0:
intent = new Intent(currentActivity, A.class);
startActivity(intent)
break;
case 1:
intent = new Intent(currentActivity, B.class);
startActivity(intent)
break;
default:
}
}
});
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item)
{
if (drawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item))
return true;
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
#Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
drawerToggle.syncState();
}
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig)
{
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
drawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}
#Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent e)
{
Log.e("", "onKeyDown");
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_MENU)
{
if(!drawerLayout.isDrawerOpen(Gravity.LEFT))
drawerLayout.openDrawer(Gravity.LEFT);
else
drawerLayout.closeDrawer(Gravity.LEFT);
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, e);
}
}
Z.java
public class Z extends BaseActivity
{
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState, R.layout.Z);
setContentView(R.layout.Z);
//Other things to do...
}
}
Z.xml

I do not exactly know why you would want to implement it that way but if you still want to do it this way i would suggest making your navdrawer use a listview with an adapter to draw items from an array and then have your base activity have a getData() call that you can override in your derived activities that will supply the data that the Adapter so that the listview will then draw the appropriate items in the navdrawer. You will then have to implement the onItemClick event for each listview per activity.
