Setting date using DialogFragment and Android Annotations

Question

I have problem with writing date I selected in DatePicker with Dialog Fragment. I`m trying to do this using Android Annotations. Problem is, I have to implement behavior for setting this date to TextView on OnDateSet function in DatePickerFragment class.

How can I choose in which TextView, which @Click should write?

Code below:

@EActivity(R.layout.activity_main_search)public class SearchActivity extends FragmentActivity{

private int mFYear, mFMonth, mFDay, mTYear, mTMonth, mTDay;

 (R.id.main_search_city)
EditText cityET;

@ViewById(R.id.main_search_price)
EditText priceET;

@ViewById(R.id.main_search_from)
TextView dateFromTV;

@ViewById(R.id.main_search_to)
TextView dateToTV;

public static class DatePickerFragment extends DialogFragment
    implements DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener {

    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // Use the current date as the default date in the picker
        final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
        int year = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
        int month = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
        int day = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

        // Create a new instance of DatePickerDialog and return it
        return new DatePickerDialog(getActivity(), this, year, month, day);
    }

    public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int month, int day) {

        }
}



@AfterViews
public void setCurrentdateonView(){
     final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
     mFYear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
     mFMonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH)+1;
     mFDay = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

     dateFromTV.setText(new StringBuffer().append(mFDay).append("-").append(mFMonth).append("-").append(mFYear).append(""));
     dateToTV.setText(new StringBuffer().append(mFDay).append("-").append(mFMonth).append("-").append(mFYear).append(""));                                 
 }   


@App
HApplication mApp;

@Click(R.id.main_search_from_btn)
public void showFromDatePickerDialog(View v) {
    DialogFragment newFragment = new DatePickerFragment();
    newFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "datePicker");


}

@Click(R.id.main_search_to_btn)
public void showToDatePickerDialog(View v) {
    DialogFragment newFragment = new DatePickerFragment();
    newFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "datePicker");
}

@Click(R.id.main_search_btn)
public void openSearch(){
    //SearchActivity_.intent(this).city(cityET.getText().toString()).start();
    ListActivity_.intent(this).city(cityET.getText().toString()).price(priceET.getText().toString()).start();
}}

Functions that should realise that date writing are:

@Click(R.id.main_search_from_btn) public void showFromDatePickerDialog(View v)

it should write date to dateFromTV

and

@Click(R.id.main_search_to_btn) public void showToDatePickerDialog(View v)

it should write date to dateToTV

I SOLVED THE PROBLEM.

What I needed was flags, which were set on each button @Click and then in onDateSet case switch with flag number check. Maybe it will help someone, because it took me whole day to figure it out...

The Click annotation is just for triggering the dialog. You should implement a callback method through listener interfaces described here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#PassingEvents

EDIT: I implemented a version for myself, here is the code:

MainActivity.java:

    package com.example.datepickerexample;

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.DialogFragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.TextView;

import com.example.datepickerexample.DatePickerFragment.DatePickerDialogListener;

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements
        DatePickerDialogListener {
    TextView lbl_from, lbl_to, cpn_from, cpn_to;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        cpn_from = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.cpn_from);
        cpn_to = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.cpn_to);
        lbl_from = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.lbl_from);
        lbl_to = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.lbl_to);
    }

    public void showFromDatePickerDialog(View v) {
        DialogFragment newFragment = new DatePickerFragment();
        Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
        bundle.putBoolean("isFromDate", true);
        newFragment.setArguments(bundle);
        newFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "datePicker");
    }

    public void showToDatePickerDialog(View v) {
        DialogFragment newFragment = new DatePickerFragment();
        Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
        bundle.putBoolean("isFromDate", false);
        newFragment.setArguments(bundle);
        newFragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "datePicker");
    }

    @Override
    public void onDatePicked(DialogFragment dialog, Calendar c,
            boolean isFromDate) {
        String strdate = null;

        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");

        if (c != null) {
        strdate = sdf.format(c.getTime());
        }
        if (isFromDate) {
            lbl_from.setText(strdate);
        } else {
            lbl_to.setText(strdate);
        }
    }

}
