send data from one fragment to another using bundle . i tried this. it's not working Why can I not get my app to successfully send data from one fragment to another?
hi, i am very new to programming and stackoverflow
i have created a MainActivity in which i have two fragments
<fragment
android:id="@+id/fragment1"
android:name="fragments.first"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
</fragment>
<fragment
android:id="@+id/fragment2"
android:name="fragments.second"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
</fragment>
in my first fragment i want to send data to second frament when i click button
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
String question = questions1.getText().toString();
String ans1 = answer1.getText().toString();
String ans2 = answer2.getText().toString();
String ans3 = answer3.getText().toString();
String ans4 = answer3.getText().toString();
Map<String,String> hashMap = new HashMap<String,String>();
hashMap.put("Answer 1",ans1);
hashMap.put("Answer 2",ans2);
hashMap.put("Answer 3",ans3);
hashMap.put("Answer 4",ans4);
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("Question1",question);
bundle.putString("Answer 1",ans1);
bundle.putString("Answer 2",ans2);
bundle.putString("Answer 3",ans3);
bundle.putString("Answer 4",ans4);
String correctAnswer= CorrectAnswer;
second mfragment=new second();
mfragment.setArguments(bundle);
getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment1, mfragment).commit();
Toast.makeText(getActivity(),question,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
and in second fragment
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Bundle bundle = getArguments();// i am receiving error here. what should i do?
String question = bundle.getString("Question1");
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {

View root = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_second, container, false);
return root;
}

I solved it . I removed the second fragment from the activity and converted the first fragment to frame layout as data was overlapping and added the first fragment programmatically
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/fragment1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</FrameLayout>
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.fragment1,new first()).commit();
and the edited the second fragment on createView like this:
Bundle bundle = getArguments();
if (bundle != null){
String question = bundle.getString("Question1");
String Question = question.toString();
textView.setText(Question);
I read so many StackOverflow questions and used frame layout as overlapping was occuring am i right?
