Android Setshareintent Within Fragment

1. Background I have a screen that has a ShareActionProvider and a ViewPager that uses fragments. What I was hoping to do was get some information from inside the currently vis

Solution 1:

I stumble on this question while dealing with similar problem. 2 things about accepted solution:

1. Don't save reference to the fragment anywhere, especially in some list in the adapter
2. Don't create fields in the fragment, always store data you need in the Bundle so you can get it by using Fragment#getArguments

Now - with this in mind here's a simple solution: put your ShareActionProvider initialization code to onPrepareOptionsMenu call. Something like this:

@OverridepublicvoidonPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
    MenuItemmenuShare= menu.findItem(R.id.menuShare);
    ShareActionProvidershareAction= (ShareActionProvider) 
         menuShare.getActionProvider();
    shareAction.setShareIntent(createShareIntent());
}

protected Intent createShareIntent() {
    IntentshareIntent=newIntent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
    shareIntent.setType("text/plain");
    Jobjob= getArguments().getSerializable(JOB);
    shareIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, job.title);
    shareIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, job.toText());
    return shareIntent;
}

Solution 2:

I managed to figure out how to do this myself. What I ended up doing is overriding the

OnPageChangeListener

in the fragmentactivity

privatefinalOnPageChangeListenermOnPageChangeListener=newOnPageChangeListener() {

    @OverridepublicvoidonPageScrollStateChanged(int arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    }

    @OverridepublicvoidonPageScrolled(int arg0, float arg1, int arg2) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    }

    @OverridepublicvoidonPageSelected(int arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stubTestFragmentfrag= (TestFragment) adapter.mFragments.get(pager.getCurrentItem());

        frag.setShareActionIntent();

    }

};

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ShareActionProvider.html

the example from android sdk doc is:

// In Activity#onCreateOptionsMenupublicbooleanonCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
      // Get the menu item.MenuItem menuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.my_menu_item);
      // Get the provider and hold onto it to set/change the share intent.
      mShareActionProvider = (ShareActionProvider) menuItem.getActionProvider();
      // Set history different from the default before getting the action// view since a call to MenuItem.getActionView() calls// onCreateActionView() which uses the backing file name. Omit this// line if using the default share history file is desired.
      mShareActionProvider.setShareHistoryFileName("custom_share_history.xml");
      . . .
  }

  // Somewhere in the application.publicvoiddoShare(Intent shareIntent) {
      // When you want to share set the share intent.
      mShareActionProvider.setShareIntent(shareIntent);
  }
