I am using child fragments. Fragment A adds a child fragment B:
B fragment = new B(); // B is a child
getChildFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(fragment, null).commit();
Then later B removes itself with the following:
// in the B's code:
getChildFragmentManager().beginTransaction().remove(this).commit();
But I am getting the exception:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Recursive entry to executePendingTransactions

Within the child fragment we need to use FragmentManager
from the parent fragment:
getParentFragment().getChildFragmentManager().beginTransaction().remove(this).commit();
So, the getParentFragment()
was the missing part.
