Text input with DialogFragment

I am trying to get a value that user enters into a Dialog, using the recommended DialogFragment class for it, the Dialog constructs and runs fine, but I cannot return the value of the EditText parameter to the parent class, without get a Null pointer exception.
My DialogHost class, this constructs, returns and links the parent to its buttons.
Code:
package jo.app.co;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.app.DialogFragment;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
public class DialogHost extends DialogFragment {
public interface NoticeDialogListener {
public void onDialogPositiveClick(DialogFragment dialog);
public void onDialogNegativeClick(DialogFragment dialog);
}
NoticeDialogListener mListener;
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
super.onAttach(activity);
try {
mListener = (NoticeDialogListener) activity;
} catch (ClassCastException e) {
throw new ClassCastException(activity.toString());
}
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
LayoutInflater inflater = getActivity().getLayoutInflater();
builder.setView(inflater.inflate(R.layout.dialog_add, null))
.setPositiveButton("Save", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
mListener.onDialogPositiveClick(DialogHost.this);
}
})
.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
DialogHost.this.getDialog().cancel();
}
});
return builder.create();
}
}
My MainActivity
Code:
package jo.app.co;
import android.app.DialogFragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements DialogHost.NoticeDialogListener {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
showNoticeDialog();
}
public void showNoticeDialog() {
DialogFragment dialog = new DialogHost();
dialog.show(getFragmentManager(), "DialogHost");
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onDialogPositiveClick(DialogFragment dialog) {
EditText myText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.item_added);
try {
Log.d ("IN TRY", myText.getText().toString());
}
catch (Exception e) {
Log.e ("IN CATCH", e.toString());
}
}
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public void onDialogNegativeClick(DialogFragment dialog) {
Log.d ("INMAIN", "REACHED NEG");
}
}
This is my layout for the add item dialog.
Code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<EditText
android:id="@+id/item_added"
android:inputType="text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="4dp"
android:layout_marginRight="4dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="4dp"
android:hint="@string/hint_add_item" />
</LinearLayout>

It's because in your main activity you are trying to call findViewById:

This is not possible since the layout of the activity is not the one the dialog is using. There are multiple ways of doing this, for instance call findViewById in the dialog's onPositiveButtonListener and pass that value through your interface. It might be that you need to use the LayoutInflator in the onCreateDialog, set
LinearLayout linearl = (LinearLayout) inflater.inflate(...) and get the EditText from there. You then call setView(linearL) instead.

I tried calling findViewById method in the onClick method in the Dialog class, but the function is not defined for a DialogInterface.onClickListner, I modified it to linearl method you told but I cannot get it to work either.
Could you make the changes in the 2 snippets above, it would be very helpful!

You'll have to setup listeners fo this and pass the string or whetever you want to pass to back to the activity which in its turn can handle it (do it by itself or pass this to another fragement).
Although not so much votes (0) the last answer here on stackoverflow has exeactly what you need.

[Q] How to add function to toggle switches?

I am pretty new to coding and app development. After searching around this is an easy thing to do. But I'm so stupid I can figure it out.
So what I need is to add a hardware function to a toggle switch. If you know how to add function to it. What I need is to send all audio through the earpiece when the toggle switch is on. Can you please put the whole code I need to do this? Please help me out!

After you define your toggle switch in your xml, you can add a id and then you can
Code:
android:onClick="onSwitchClicked"
anywhere between the toggle block. This will say what to do when the toggle is clicked. Now put the below method in your class to control the toggle status:
Code:
public void onSwitchClicked(View view) {
switch(view.getId()){
case R.id.switch1:
if(switch1.isChecked()) {
// To do when 1st switch is on
}
else {
//To do when 1st switch is off
}
break;
case R.id.switch2:
if(switch2.isChecked()) {
//To do when 2nd switch is on
}
else {
//To do when 2nd switch is off
}
break;
}
}
You can extended to as many switches you want by providing different id's for the switch in xml and controlling that with case statements in the java.
And for controlling the audio, You can use audiomanager class
Code:
AudioManager am = (AudioManager) getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
am.setSpeakerphoneOn(true); //sets audio via speaker
am.setWiredHeadsetOn(true); //sets audio via headset

Problem!

I did what you said. Yet I encountered a problem. Please see the attached screenshot.
When I hover over the X it says "Attribute name "public" associated with an element type "RadioButton" must be followed by the ' = '
character."
Where do I put the "="
Thanks by the way. You helped me out a lot!

you are mixing java with XML. Honestly, I suggest you start on a few beginner tutorials.

Just tell me what to do. I can't go through the guide. I need this app done by August 14.

Bad Attitude to have. This isn't a "do my work for me" forum.
And like zalez was kind enough to point out, your putting java in xml. If you expect to make an app you need to read some beginner guides first.
you have almost a month to do it.

Thanks, I didn't mean to be rude. Where can I find the guide? :thumbup:

Set Switch status from incoming JSON data
Sorry to bump this thread after such a long time but I am facing a problem with switches myself and would appreciate some help. I have a JSON parser class which is retrieving data from a database. The retrieved info contains 'ID', 'name' and 'status' fields related to a device. I can display ID and name of each of the devices (there are several rows) using a listview but I don't know how to use the 'status' field value (it is either 1 or 0) to set an associated Switch component. I have to set the Switch associated with each listview item to ON if incoming 'status' value is 1 and set it OFF if 'status' is 0. I am lost on where to put the 'setChecked' method for every listview item. Here's the code of activity that shows these list items:

I have reached thus far with the code: [attached-image]
Now I only have to set those Switches according to status values from database. I have tried putting the setChecked in doInBackground method and onPostExecute method but it doesn't work. Do I have to save all status values in an array and start a loop to set all Switches? Where would that code go?
ANY kind of help/guidance here is appreciated!

Read This guide first, then it's easier to help you.
What I'm seeing is that you should set your message=getIntent ().... ; in the onCreate since the Intent data is probably not available before.

The Fragment that should contain a Navigation Drawer is Resturants , also drawer's mainactivity is implemented with Sherlock Library(SherlockFragmentActivity).
I'm puzzled how to call the SherlockFragmentActivity from the SherlockActivity
Thanks

The Fragment that should contain a Navigation Drawer is Resturants , also drawer's mainactivity is implemented with Sherlock Library(SherlockFragmentActivity).
I'm puzzled how to call the SherlockFragmentActivity from the SherlockActivity
Thanks

That last sentence does not make sense I assume you mean from the Fragment?! Well to access the holding activity you need to add an interface to the Fragment which the activity will implement.
Am I understanding you correctly that have a horizontal ViewPager and one of the Fragments should have a Navigation drawer? To accomplish that you would still need the whole activity to hold the drawer and figure out a way to disable it when the user is on some other Fragment. But my question is why you want to use a navigation drawer in that case, because the drawer is meant for navigating on the same hierarchical level, but the different items are more independent than with the ViewPager. It doesn't really make sense to have both a drawer and horizontal swiping, even the YouTube app really bothers me with its swiping between suggestions and feed. I think what you need to use here is a spinner in the ActionBar, replacing the title of the Fragment.

Yeah you're right , I just want to use the drawer in order to change contents.
