I have a Fragment Tabs Pager and used sherlockFragment and I need to search for other bluetooth devices inside it. but I cannot registerReceiver as it's needed. I get the following error: The method registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver, IntentFilter) is undefined for the type Fragment_Bluetooth. I am wondering if I should use registerReceiver in another scope? and where and how? here is my code:
public class Fragment_Bluetooth extends SherlockFragment {
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Create a BroadcastReceiver for ACTION_FOUND
BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
// When discovery finds a device
if (BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND.equals(action)) {
// Get the BluetoothDevice object from the Intent
BluetoothDevice device = intent.getParcelableExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE);
// Add the name and address to an array adapter to ListView
mArrayAdapter.add(device.getName() + "\n" + device.getAddress());
}
}
};
// Register the BroadcastReceiver
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND);
registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter); // Don't forget to unregister during onDestroy
}
}
getActivity().registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter); // Don't forget to unregister during onDestroy
Or getSherlockActivity()
getSherlockActivity().registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter); // Don't forget to unregister during onDestroy
