How to properly retain a DialogFragment through rotation?

问题

I have a FragmentActivity that hosts a DialogFragment.

The DialogFragment perform network requests and handles Facebook authentication, so I need to retain it during rotation.

I've read all the other questions relating to this issue, but none of them have actually solved the problem.

I'm using putFragment and getFragment to save the Fragment instance and get it again during activity re-creation.

However, I'm always getting a null pointer exception on the call to getFragment in onRestoreInstanceState. I would also like to keep the dialog from being dismissed during rotation, but so far I can't even retain the instance of it.

Any ideas what's going wrong?

Here's what my code currently looks like:

public class OKLoginActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OKLoginDialogListener
{

    private OKLoginFragment loginDialog;
    private static final String TAG_LOGINFRAGMENT = "OKLoginFragment";


    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();

        if(savedInstanceState == null)
        {
            loginDialog = new OKLoginFragment(); 
            loginDialog.show(fm, TAG_LOGINFRAGMENT);
        }
    }


    @Override
    public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState)
    {
        getSupportFragmentManager().putFragment(outState,TAG_LOGINFRAGMENT, loginDialog);
    }

    @Override
    public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle inState)
    {
        FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
        loginDialog = (OKLoginFragment) fm.getFragment(inState, TAG_LOGINFRAGMENT);
    }

}

This is the exception stack trace:

回答1:

Inside your DialogFragment, call Fragment.setRetainInstance(boolean) with the value true. You don't need to save the fragment manually, the framework already takes care of all of this. Calling this will prevent your fragment from being destroyed on rotation and your network requests will be unaffected.

You may have to add this code to stop your dialog from being dismissed on rotation, due to a bug with the compatibility library:

@Override
public void onDestroyView() {
    Dialog dialog = getDialog();
    // handles https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17423
    if (dialog != null && getRetainInstance()) {
        dialog.setDismissMessage(null);
    }
    super.onDestroyView();
}

One of the advantages of using dialogFragment compared to just using alertDialogBuilder is exactly because dialogfragment can automatically recreate itself upon rotation without user intervention.

However, when the dialogfragment does not recreate itself, it is possible that you overwrite onSaveInstanceState but didn't to call super:

@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
    super.onSaveInstanceState(outState); // <-- must call this if you want to retain dialogFragment upon rotation
    ...
}

This is a convenience method using the fix from antonyt's answer:

public class RetainableDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {

    public RetainableDialogFragment() {
        setRetainInstance(true);
    }

    @Override
    public void onDestroyView() {
        Dialog dialog = getDialog();
        // handles https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17423
        if (dialog != null && getRetainInstance()) {
            dialog.setDismissMessage(null);
        }
        super.onDestroyView();
    }
}

Just let your DialogFragment extend this class and everything will be fine. This becomes especially handy, if you have multiple DialogFragments in your project which all need this fix.
