Set parent's activity list from a child fragment

Question

I have an activity which works as a pager. In this activty there are some fragments, and a ListView. Is it possible that I set the list adapter on my activity from one of my fragments?

Answer 1

Why don't you use ViewPager instead of inveting all by yourself. Follow the link and you will find example on using this android feature. Also, it's backward-compatible using the support library.

If it helps you what to do ;)

Answer 2

You can access the Activity that holds the Fragment by calling getActivity() after onActivityCreated() in the Fragment s lifecycle.

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
  ListView lv = (ListView) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.your_list_view);
  lv.setAdapter(yourAdapter);
}

Answer 3

You need to use ListAdapter for that. Have a look here
