Views don't get injected by AndroidAnnotations in DialogFragment

The @ViewById annotations are not working in my DialogFragment.

I use @EFragment(R.layout.mydialogfragment)

I create the fragment by doing

MyDialogFragment_.builder() .build() .init(someObject, new ClickListener() {...}) .show(getFragmentManager(), "myDialog");

where init() is my custom method which returns the MyDialogFragment for chaining.

I didn't override OnCreateDialog, nor did I override onCreateView, and I'm not using any of the @After... annotations of AndroidAnnotations.

I'm trying to use the injected views in my init() method, but they are null.

Solution

  • Just as I finished typing the question I realized what was wrong. I was assuming views would be injected by the time build() returned so I could use them in the init() method, but they weren't. The fix was to annotate another method with the @AfterViews annotation and do the view related initialization there.
