I have done fragments with tabs before by using a tablistener and having a class for each fragment, now I’ve figured out that Eclipse lets you set up either tabs or sections with fragments, so I used this instead. But now I have a problem. I created a fragment class inside my mainactivity class. But when I try to change the data in a textview I get a nullpointer.
Here is the code
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
/**
* The {@link android.support.v4.view.PagerAdapter} that will provide fragments for each of the
* sections. We use a {@link android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter} derivative, which will
* keep every loaded fragment in memory. If this becomes too memory intensive, it may be best
* to switch to a {@link android.support.v4.app.FragmentStatePagerAdapter}.
*/
SectionsPagerAdapter mSectionsPagerAdapter;
/**
* The {@link ViewPager} that will host the section contents.
*/
ViewPager mViewPager;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Create the adapter that will return a fragment for each of the three primary sections
// of the app.
mSectionsPagerAdapter = new SectionsPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
// Set up the ViewPager with the sections adapter.
mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
mViewPager.setAdapter(mSectionsPagerAdapter);
mViewPager.setCurrentItem(2);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
return true;
}
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
return true;
}
/**
* A {@link FragmentPagerAdapter} that returns a fragment corresponding to one of the primary
* sections of the app.
*/
public class SectionsPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public SectionsPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
@Override
public Fragment getItem(int i) {
Fragment fragment = new MainFragment();
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putInt(MainFragment.ARG_SECTION_NUMBER, i);
fragment.setArguments(args);
return fragment;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return 4;
}
@Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
switch (position) {
case 0: return getString(R.string.title_section1).toUpperCase();
case 1: return getString(R.string.title_section2).toUpperCase();
case 2: return getString(R.string.title_section3).toUpperCase();
case 3: return getString(R.string.title_section4).toUpperCase();
}
return null;
}
}
public static class MainFragment extends Fragment {
public static final String ARG_SECTION_NUMBER = "section_number";
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Bundle args = getArguments();
int position = args.getInt(ARG_SECTION_NUMBER);
int tabLayout = 1;
switch(position) {
case 0:
tabLayout = R.layout.tab1;
break;
case 1:
tabLayout = R.layout.tab2;
break;
case 2:
tabLayout = R.layout.tab3;
break;
case 3:
tabLayout = R.layout.tab4;
break;
}
View view = inflater.inflate(tabLayout, container, false);
TextView tv = (TextView) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.stats_squats);
tv.setText("DEPRSTgjhndkpgfhn");
return view;
}
}
I have tried different ways to do this:
TextView tv = (TextView) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.stats_squats);
tv.setText("DEPRSTgjhndkpgfhn");
TextView tv = (TextView) getView().findViewById(R.id.stats_squats);
tv.setText("DEPRSTgjhndkpgfhn");
TextView tv = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.stats_squats);
tv.setText("DEPRSTgjhndkpgfhn");
Same error each time.

If you look at the Fragment documentation, you’ll see that
onCreateView()runs beforeonCreateActivity().getActivity()will return null inonCreateView(). You need to move that piece out ofonCreateView()and overrideonActivityCreated()..
