I have created an app settings with Preferences. But I noticed, that there no toolbar in my PreferenceActivity. How I can add toolbar to my PreferenceActivity?
My code:
my pref_xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<ListPreference
android:key="select_class"
android:title="@string/select_class"
android:defaultValue="0"
android:entries="@array/classy"
android:entryValues="@array/classy"
android:dialogTitle="@string/select_class" />
</PreferenceScreen>
my PrefActivity.java:
package ***.***.***;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.preference.PreferenceActivity;
import android.preference.PreferenceFragment;
public class PrefActivity extends PreferenceActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(android.R.id.content, new PrefFragment()).commit();
}
public static class PrefFragment extends PreferenceFragment
{
@Override
public void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.pref);
}
}
}
P.S Gautam, at your .java code there's an error in the line:
setSupportActionBar(toolbar); :
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{xxx/xxx.PrefActivity}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: This Activity already has an action bar supplied by the window decor.

Use an activity extending AppCompatActivity containing your toolbar referenced from layout file like below
public class UserSettingPreference extends AppCompatActivity {
Toolbar toolbar;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.toolbar);
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
toolbar.setTitle("Settings");
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
onBackPressed();
}
});
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment_container,
new UserPreferenceFragment()).commit();
}
}
Define your layout containing a toolbar and a framelayout to hold the fragment
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<Toolbar
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#80000000"
android:minHeight="?android:attr/actionBarSize"
app:contentInsetEnd="0dp"
app:contentInsetLeft="0dp"
app:contentInsetRight="0dp"
app:contentInsetStart="0dp"/>
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/fragment_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Then define your fragment extending preference fragment like below -
public class UserPreferenceFragment extends PreferenceFragment
To refer to your preference.xml override onCreate of fragment like below -
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.fragment_preference);
}
To refer particular elements inside your preference.xml use getPreferenceScreen method
switchPreference = (SwitchPreference) getPreferenceScreen().findPreference("floating_widget");
