onActivityResult is not called, neither in Activity nor in Fragment

Question

I have problem with onActivityResult. There are several threads about this already, but none of the suggestions I have seen have worked for me.

I have the following activity EditDate:

public class EditDate extends AppCompatActivity {
    EditDateFragment editDateFragment;
    JSONObject usrObject;
    int YEARPOSITION = -1;
    int MONTHPOSITION = -1;
    static final int CHOOSEDAY = 1;
    JSONArray resultsOld;
    JSONArray maxResultsOld;
    JSONArray disciplinesOld;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_edit_date);
        usrObject = MainActivity.usrObject;
        Intent intent = getIntent();
        YEARPOSITION = intent.getIntExtra("YEARPOSITION",0);
        MONTHPOSITION = intent.getIntExtra("MONTHPOSITION",0);
        editDateFragment = new EditDateFragment();
        getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.edit_date_container,editDateFragment).commit();

    @Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data){
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
        MainActivity.showToast("WTF!");
    }
    }

and a fragment EditDateFragment:

import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.ListFragment;

When I click an item in the ListFragment, a calendar is shown, I start in the function startCalendar(int position)

The Activity and Fragment for showing the calendar are Activity:

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton;
import android.support.design.widget.Snackbar;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.View;

public class showCalendar extends AppCompatActivity {
    showCalendarFragment showCalendarFragment;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_show_calendar);
        showCalendarFragment = new showCalendarFragment();
        this.getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.show_calendar_container,showCalendarFragment).commit();
    }
}

showCalendarFragment:

import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.CalendarView;

/**
 * A placeholder fragment containing a simple view.
 */
public class showCalendarFragment extends Fragment implements CalendarView.OnDateChangeListener {

    private CalendarView calendarView;

    @Override
    public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState){
        super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
        Intent intent = getActivity().getIntent();

        calendarView = (CalendarView)getView().findViewById(R.id.calendarView);
        calendarView.setOnDateChangeListener(this);
    }
    public showCalendarFragment() {
    }

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_show_calendar, container, false);
    }

    @Override
    public void onSelectedDayChange(CalendarView view, int year, int month, int dayOfMonth) {
        month = month  + 1;

        Intent intent = new Intent();
        Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
        bundle.putInt(MainActivity.LIST_YEAR,year);
        bundle.putInt(MainActivity.MONTH,month);
        bundle.putInt(MainActivity.DAY,dayOfMonth);
        intent.putExtras(bundle);
        getActivity().setResult(getActivity().RESULT_OK,intent);
        getActivity().finish();
    }

}

When I click an item in my list, the calendar is started and shown as it shall. When a date is chosen, the activity stops and goes back to the EditDate activity. However, no matter what I do, I do not see that onActivityResult is called. Not in the EditDate activity nor in the EditDateFragment. I have tried some different approaches like trying getActivity.startActivityForResult(intent,requestcode) and using super.onActivityStarted(requestcode, resultCode,intent) and so forth. Nothing has worked.

Ideally, I would like the onActivityResult() in the Activity to be called. Any help is appreciated!

Edit: It works now, I had static final int CHOOSEDAY = -1 in the EditDateFragment and CHOOSEDAY = 1 in EditDate.

Answer 1

this method is called only when you use startActivityForResult() to start a new activity not fragment!!! i think this will help you

Is there a method that works like start fragment for result?
