android what to use instead of onRestart() in a fragment

Question

I\'m dealing with .setVisibility() of a view, inside my main fragment at app start. So what I want is that the view is invisible on app sta

Answer 1

Fragments don't have onRestart(). It's only for Activities.

See the lifecycle of fragments below

I suppose you're looking for onResume() instead

Use a boolean flag to check whether or not you're returning to the Fragment:

private boolean firstVisit;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    //other stuff
    firstVisit = true;
}

@Override
public void onResume() {
    //other stuff
    if (firstVisit) {
        //do stuff for first visit only

        firstVisit = false;
    }
}
