In making the swipe tabbed layout as below prior to Android 5.0:
Simply required the code as:
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
final ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
...
// Specify that tabs should be displayed in the action bar.
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
// Create a tab listener that is called when the user changes tabs.
ActionBar.TabListener tabListener = new ActionBar.TabListener() {
public void onTabSelected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
// show the given tab
}
public void onTabUnselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
// hide the given tab
}
public void onTabReselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
// probably ignore this event
}
};
// Add 3 tabs, specifying the tab's text and TabListener
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
actionBar.addTab(
actionBar.newTab()
.setText("Tab " + (i + 1))
.setTabListener(tabListener));
}
}
But given the methods for navigation on the ActionBar are deprecated, How can I implement this type of view to be compatible withe Android 5.0 and previous versions?
You need to update to Toolbar here is the documentation.
