I'm building an app with 2 fragments.
In the 2nd Fragment, I have a "Save" Button. In the onClick
of this button, I am trying to send a local broadcast:
btnSave.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
localBroadcastManager.sendBroadcast(localIntent);
}
});
And this is my intent:
final LocalBroadcastManager localBroadcastManager = LocalBroadcastManager
.getInstance(Objects.requireNonNull(getContext()));
final Intent localIntent = new Intent("CUSTOM_ACTION");
The point of this is so that the 1st fragment picks it up and executes a method to save the Image as a bitmap with its captions (that's what the 2 TextViews are for). This is my attempt:
private BroadcastReceiver listener = new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent ) {
String data = intent.getStringExtra("DATA");
Toast.makeText(context, data + " received", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
createAndSaveBitmap(topTextView.getText().toString(), bottomTextView.getText().toString(), memeBitmap, memeCanvas, memePaint, imageView, imageUri);
}
};
public void createAndSaveBitmap(String top, String bottom, Bitmap bitmap,
Canvas canvas, Paint paint, ImageView imageView, Uri imageUri) {
try {
memeBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(context.getContentResolver().openInputStream(imageUri))
.copy(Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888, true); }
catch (FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
canvas = new Canvas(memeBitmap);
paint = new Paint();
canvas.drawText(top, 0, 0, paint);
canvas.drawText(bottom, 0, memeCanvas.getHeight() - 10, paint);
imageView.setImageBitmap(memeBitmap);
if(bitmap != null){
File file = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
File newFile = new File(file, "test.jpg");
try {
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(newFile);
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, fileOutputStream);
fileOutputStream.flush();
fileOutputStream.close();
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
}
}
When I run the app, nothing happens when I click the "Save" button. Doesn't download the image, nor does it crash. Since there is no error stacktrace, I can't see where I'm going wrong.
Make sure that you are calling this in your receiving fragment's onResume
.
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(getActivity()).registerReceiver(
listener,
new IntentFilter("CUSTOM_ACTION")
);
and this in onPause
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(getActivity()).unregisterReceiver(listener);
