Possibility of casting android.support.v4.app.Fragment to android.app.Fragment when implementing a FragmentTabHost

Question

I want to implement a three tab screen inside a fragment (TabFragement). I am importing android.support.v4.app.FragmentTabHost and android.support.v4.app.Fragment when creating a tabhost inside the fragment.
When I try to call the fragment (TabFragement) using an activity, in
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, fragment).commit();
the method 'replace' wants to have a fragment of android.app.Fragment.
So, how should I solve this matter?
Any sugegstions?
Thank you.

Answer 1

To solve the import problem you need to extends FragmentActivity . FragmentActivity was added to allow the use of Fragments from the support library in your Activities .

Also, make sure you use getSupportFragmentManager() instead.

Answer 2

i think you have to take only Fragment instead FragmentTabhost and add tabhost to your fragmentlayout.xml and in fragment.java class take that tabhost object and create tabbar. thats it...
