Send data from activity to fragment

Question

How can we send data from actvity to fragment? The Fragments are configured to actvity by using FragmentPagerAdapter.

Answer 1

You can perform this by using Bundle

Send data from the activity (or fragment) :

int a = 5;

Bundle args = new Bundle(); 
args.putInt("INT_DATA_TAG", a); 

Fragment fragment = Fragment.newInstance(args); 
//Making fragment transaction 

Retrieve data in the fragment

int a;
public static Fragment newInstance(Bundle args) {
      a = args.getInt("INT_DATA_TAG"); //use a constant for the tag
      return new Fragment();
}

Answer 2

• You can pass a bundle to the fragment on creation with setArguments.
• You can create methods to set the data on the Fragment class.
