Android FragmentStatePagerAdapter

Question

I\'m working with a FragmentStatePagerAdapter using this example.

The MyAdapter class is implemented as follows:

public static class MyAdapter extends Fr         


        

Answer 1

While @imiric's solution is very concise, it still bothers me that it requires knowledge of the implementation of the class. My solution involves adding the following to your adapter, which should behave nicely with a FragmentStatePagerAdapter possibly destroying fragments:

    private SparseArray> mFragments = new SparseArray<>();

    @Override
    public Object instantiateItem(ViewGroup container, int position) {
        Fragment f = (Fragment) super.instantiateItem(container, position);
        mFragments.put(position, new WeakReference<>(f));  // Remember what fragment was in position
        return f;
    }

    @Override
    public void destroyItem(ViewGroup container, int position, Object object) {
        super.destroyItem(container, position, object);
        mFragments.remove(position);
    }

    public Fragment getFragment(int position) {
        WeakReference ref = mFragments.get(position);
        Fragment f = ref != null ? ref.get() : null;
        if (f == null) {
            Log.d(TAG, "fragment for " + position + " is null!");
        }
        return f;
    }
