No view found for ID

I'm trying to achieve Fragment to Fragment transaction with onOptionsItemSelected but I keep getting
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No view found for id
I also read this thread:
Android Fragment no view found for ID? and applied some answer to my code but it is not solve my problem
Here is my HomeFragment.java
private Toolbar toolbar;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
//Set Toolbar for Fragment
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_home, container, false);
toolbar = (Toolbar) v.findViewById(R.id.main_toolbar);
((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
setHasOptionsMenu(true);
return v;
}
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(#NonNull Menu menu, #NonNull MenuInflater inflater) {
inflater.inflate(R.menu.toolbar_menu,menu);
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
FragmentManager fm = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager();
fm.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.cart_fragment_layout,new CartFragment())
.commitNow();
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
My fragment_cart.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/cart_fragment_layout"
tools:context="com.example.fragment.CartFragment"
android:background="#color/black">
<!-- TODO: Update blank fragment layout -->
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/cart_ll"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/cart_rv"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="50dp"
android:text="Cart Fragment" />
</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>
and my CartFragment.java
public class CartFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_cart, container, false);
return v;
}
}
My MainActivity.java just in case, I set HomeFragment as default:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Toolbar toolbar;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
toolbar = findViewById(R.id.main_toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
BottomNavigationView bottomNav = findViewById(R.id.bottom_navigation);
bottomNav.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(navListener);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.frament_container,
new HomeFragment()).commit();
}
private BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener navListener =
new BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
Fragment selectedFragment = null;
switch (item.getItemId()){
case R.id.nav_home:
selectedFragment = new HomeFragment();
break;
case R.id.nav_menu:
selectedFragment = new MenuFragment();
break;
case R.id.nav_user:
selectedFragment = new UserFragment();
break;
case R.id.nav_more:
selectedFragment = new MoreFragment();
break;
}
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.frament_container,
selectedFragment).commit();
return true;
}
};
}

The id you use in a fragment transaction is NOT the view id of a view in the fragment. Its the id of the fragment stub view in the layout you're popping the fragment into. So you're passing in the wrong id. I can't tell you what the right one is, as you don't give us the xml of your main layout.
Basically the fragment transaction looks for the id you pass out in the context root layout, then pops out what's already there and replaces it with your fragment.

RecyclerView crashes with NullPointerException in Fragment

RecyclerView works normally when used in activity but when used in fragment it gives error as below
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView.setLayoutManager(androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView$LayoutManager)' on a null object reference
at restaurant.menu.fragments.MealsFragment.onCreate(MealsFragment.java:42)

MealsFragment.java
public class MealsFragment extends Fragment {
public MealsFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
RecyclerView recyclerView;
itemAdapter adapter;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
ArrayList<Items> ItemsList;
ItemsList= (ArrayList<Items>) RoomDatabaseSingleton.getInstance(getActivity().getApplicationContext())
.getAppDatabase()
.getDao()
.getItems("Meals");
recyclerView = getActivity().findViewById(R.id.rvMeals);
RecyclerView.LayoutManager manager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity(),RecyclerView.VERTICAL,false);
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(manager);
adapter = new itemAdapter(getActivity().getApplicationContext(), ItemsList);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_meals, container, false);
}
}

As per the Fragment lifecycle guide, onCreate() is called before onCreateView. That means that your Fragment's view hasn't been created yet.
Instead, you want to move all of your code from onCreate() into onViewCreated() - that is the method that is called after onCreateView() and is where you can access your newly inflated views. Note that you cannot and should not be using getActivity().findViewById() - that finds views in your activity's layout, not in your fragment's layout:
public class MealsFragment extends Fragment {
public MealsFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
RecyclerView recyclerView;
itemAdapter adapter;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_meals, container, false);
}
#Override
public void onViewCreated(#NonNull View view, #Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
ArrayList<Items> ItemsList = (ArrayList<Items>) RoomDatabaseSingleton.getInstance(getContext().getApplicationContext())
.getAppDatabase()
.getDao()
.getItems("Meals");
recyclerView = view.findViewById(R.id.rvMeals);
RecyclerView.LayoutManager manager = new LinearLayoutManager(
getContext(), RecyclerView.VERTICAL,false);
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(manager);
adapter = new itemAdapter(getContext(), ItemsList);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
}
}

How to add fragment into fragment

i want to implement my_fragment1 into tab1 fragment how can i combine the fragment into fragment.
Tab1
public class Tab1 extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.tab1, container, false);
list_fragment fm = (list_fragment)getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.My_Container_1_ID);
}
Tab1.xml
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/My_Container_1_ID"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/button"
android:layout_toStartOf="#+id/button">
</FrameLayout>

If you want add another fragment to Tab1 fragment, you can use getChildFragmentManager() to add. In onActivityCreated of Tab1 fragment,
you can add another fragment
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(#Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
getChildFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.My_Container_1_ID, "your fragment here")
.commit();
}
And don't write codes after return .....

add onclick listener to a button in a fragment's xml

I'm writing and android 4.4 project using android studio.
I'm new to the fragments idea and trying to create a simple application with a button that the click handler sends a message to the log.
this is the fragment class
public static class PlaceholderFragment extends Fragment {
public PlaceholderFragment() {
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main_menu, container, false);
return rootView;
}
public void addStringClickHandler(View v) {
Log.d("tag","hello");
}
}
this is the fragment layout XML
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.tuxin.myalcoholist.myalcoholist.myalcoholist.MainMenuActivity$PlaceholderFragment">
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/add_drink"
android:id="#+id/add_drink"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="36dp"
android:onClick="addStringClickHandler" />
</RelativeLayout>
as you can see i set in the XML android:onclick to addStringClickHandler
and in the fragment class i created that function, but when I execute the application
I get an error that the runtime could not find a method addStringClickHandler(view)
what am I missing?

Your android:onClick handler method has to belong to the Activity hosting your fragment. Just move addStringClickHandler() method to the activity.
If you want to have a listener method in the fragment you have to set listener in the code like this.
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main_menu, container, false);
rootView.findViewById(R.id.add_drink).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Log.d("tag","hello");
}
});
return rootView;
}

Try to register the onClick method when inflating the view.
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main_menu, container, false);
rootView.findViewById(R.id.add_drink).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
// do what you need
}
});
return rootView;
Or you can set the fragment to be the on click listener
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main_menu, container, false);
rootView.findViewById(R.id.add_drink).setOnClickListener(this);
return rootView;
and then make the fragment implement OnClickListener.

How to setdata for a fragment when data is recieved to present activity as intents from previous activity

Overview::
I am receiving data from another activity to my present activity as
intents and im storing it in present activity as a variable named recievedData
Now my present activity has a fragment in it.
The fragment has a textview
Q::So how can i set the textview ?
MainActivityTwo.java
public class MainActivityTwo extends FragmentActivity
{
FragmentManager objFrgMng=getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction objFrgTrns;
FragmentTwo objFrgTwo=new FragmentTwo();
String recievedData;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_act_two_container);
Bundle extras=getIntent().getExtras();
recievedData=extras.getString("key");
Log.d("RECIEVED-DATA", recievedData);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.mainActTwoContainerId,objFrgTwo, "MainActFrgTwoTag").commit();
}
}
main_act_two_container.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/mainActTwoContainerId" >
</RelativeLayout>
fragment_two.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#084B8A" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textViewId"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="161dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
</RelativeLayout>
FragmentTwo.java
public class FragmentTwo extends Fragment{
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View ObjFrgOneView=inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_two, container, false);
return ObjFrgOneView;
}
}
note:: all im doing is dynamically

With the help of Raghunandan in one of comments i was able to resolve this from this link, i am sharing the complete solution in case it might be helpful to someone
MainActivityTwo.java
public class MainActivityTwo extends FragmentActivity
{
FragmentManager objFrgMng=getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction objFrgTrns;
FragmentTwo objFrgTwo=new FragmentTwo();
String recievedData;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_act_two_container);
Bundle extras=getIntent().getExtras();
recievedData=extras.getString("key");
Log.d("RECIEVED-DATA", recievedData);
//sending data to second fragment in second activity
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("edttext", recievedData);
objFrgTwo.setArguments(bundle);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.mainActTwoContainerId,objFrgTwo, "MainActFrgTwoTag").commit();
}
}
FragmentTwo.java
public class FragmentTwo extends Fragment{
TextView tv;
String strtext;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View ObjFrgOneView=inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_two, container, false);
strtext = getArguments().getString("edttext");
return ObjFrgOneView;
}
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
tv=(TextView) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.textViewId);
tv.setText(strtext);
}
}
