My code works when in an Activity. However, I decided to change it into a fragment, and it now throws an illegalstateexception from the viewswitcher. Can't figure out what is wrong. In summary, I have some images I use as placeholders. When the upload image button is clicked, it fetches the uri from the returned path and uses that to replace the placeholder image in the imageSwitcher.
Here's the code:
private Button buttonUpload;
private ImageSwitcher imageSwitcher;
private ImageButton imageButton0;
private ImageButton imageButton1;
private ImageButton imageButton2;
private ImageButton imageButton3;
private ImageButton imageButton4;
private ArrayList<String> photoArray;
int counter = 0;
private static int LOAD_IMAGE_RESULTS=1;
private static int PLACEHOLDER_IMAGE = R.drawable.placeholder_2;
int[] imgs = {R.drawable.pic1, R.drawable.pic2, R.drawable.pic3,R.drawable.pic4,R.drawable.pic5};
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.new_item_fragment_1, container,false);
return rootView;
}
public void onStart() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onStart();
//initialize variables and set default photos
initVariables();
}
private void initVariables(){
//photo array
photoArray = new ArrayList<String>();
buttonUpload = (Button) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.button_upload_ni);
buttonUpload.setOnClickListener(this);
//image Buttons
imageButton0 = (ImageButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.imageButton0);
imageButton0.setImageResource(imgs[0]);
imageButton0.setOnClickListener(this);
imageButton1 = (ImageButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.imageButton1);
imageButton1.setImageResource(imgs[1]);
imageButton1.setOnClickListener(this);
imageButton2 = (ImageButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.imageButton2);
imageButton2.setOnClickListener(this);
imageButton3 = (ImageButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.imageButton3);
imageButton3.setOnClickListener(this);
imageButton4 = (ImageButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.imageButton4);
imageButton4.setOnClickListener(this);
imageSwitcher = (ImageSwitcher) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.image_main_previewer);
imageSwitcher.setFactory(this);
//Add animation to the preview
imageSwitcher.setInAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getActivity(), R.anim.abc_fade_in));
imageSwitcher.setOutAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getActivity(), R.anim.abc_fade_out));
//set a default placeholder
imageSwitcher.setImageResource(PLACEHOLDER_IMAGE);
}
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
System.out.println("Got to beginning of onAct");
// Here we need to check if the activity that was triggers was the Image Gallery.
// If it is the requestCode will match the LOAD_IMAGE_RESULTS value.
// If the resultCode is RESULT_OK and there is some data we know that an image was picked.
if (requestCode == LOAD_IMAGE_RESULTS && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK && data != null) {

// Let's read picked image path using content resolver
// String[] filePath = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
// Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(pickedImage, filePath, null, null, null);
// cursor.moveToFirst();
// String imagePath = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(filePath[0]));
// Now we need to set the GUI ImageView data with data read from the picked file.
// uploadView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath));
//setNewImage(pickedImageUri);
String finalPath = getFinalFilePath(pickedImageUri);
setNewImage(pickedImageUri, finalPath);
// At the end remember to close the cursor or you will end with the RuntimeException!
// cursor.close();
System.out.println("Got to end of onAct");
}
}
private void setNewImage(Uri uri, String filePath){
System.out.println("Got to beginning of setNewImage");
imageSwitcher.setImageURI(uri);
//also set the image for the thumb nail
//int buttonId = getThumbButton();

//get the size of the array

int buttonId = 0;
System.out.println("Entered getThumb");
//switch through to find button to change
switch(arraySize){
case 0:

break;

return buttonId;
}
private String getFinalFilePath(Uri uri){
String[] filePath = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(uri, filePath, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String imagePath = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(filePath[0]));

// Create the Intent for Image Gallery.

// Start new activity with the LOAD_IMAGE_RESULTS to handle back the results when image is picked from the Image Gallery.
startActivityForResult(i, LOAD_IMAGE_RESULTS);
}
@Override

counter++;
System.out.println("setNewImage counter= "+counter);

view.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_CENTER);
view.setLayoutParams(new ImageSwitcher.LayoutParams (android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
view.setBackgroundColor(0xFF000000);
System.out.println("Make view ending");
return view;
}
public static Bitmap decodeSampledBitmapFromFile(String filePath, int reqWidth, int reqHeight){
//first check dimensions with inJustDecodeBounds=true
final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath,options);
//calculate inSampledSize
options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, reqWidth, reqHeight);
//Decode bitmap with inSampleSize set
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
return BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath, options);
}
public static int calculateInSampleSize(BitmapFactory.Options options, int reqWidth, int reqHeight){
//raw height and width of image
final int height = options.outHeight;
final int width = options.outWidth;
int inSampleSize = 1;
if(height>reqHeight || width > reqWidth){
final int halfHeight = height/2;
final int halfWidth = width/2;
//calculate the highest insamplesize value...
while((halfHeight/inSampleSize)>reqHeight && (halfWidth/inSampleSize)>reqWidth){
inSampleSize *=2;
}
}
return inSampleSize;
}
Finally figured it out. The fragment's OnStart() method is always called when the Activity gets focus again. Therefore, all the views get initialized again. The second time, the onActivityResult adds a third view instead of replacing one of the others and the illegalstateexception is thrown. To fix it, I simply initialized my views in the onActivityCreated() method instead of onStart();
