I have the following method
// Change fragment extension function to handle navigation easily
fun changeFragment(fragmentManager: FragmentManager?, @IdRes containerId: Int, fragment: Fragment?, addToBackStack: Boolean = false) {
if (fragmentManager == null || fragment == null) return
val fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
if (addToBackStack) fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null)
fragmentTransaction.replace(containerId, fragment, fragment::class.java.simpleName).commit()
}
and I am using it inside one of my fragments -
class InspectionFragment : Fragment(R.layout.fragment_inspection) {
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
inspectionAdapter = InspectionAdapter { inspection ->
changeFragment(
parentFragmentManager, R.id.fragment_inspection_frame_layout,
InspectionDetailsFragment.newInstance(inspection), true
)
}
}
}
class InspectionDetailsFragment : Fragment() {
companion object {
fun newInstance(inspection: Inspection): InspectionDetailsFragment {
val inspectionDetailsFragment = InspectionDetailsFragment()
val bundle = Bundle()
bundle.putParcelable(GeneralConstants.INSPECTION, inspection)
inspectionDetailsFragment.arguments = bundle
return inspectionDetailsFragment
}
}
}
The thing is that, when I instansiate onetop of the 'InspectionDetailsFragment' layer another fragment and press back, it goes directly back to the 'InspectionFragment' parent.
I can't understand why this is happening.
Anyone has an idea?
When you call changeFragment function, you're passing true as last argument:
changeFragment(
parentFragmentManager, R.id.fragment_inspection_frame_layout,
InspectionDetailsFragment.newInstance(inspection), true
)
In changeFragment function:
if (addToBackStack) fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null)
It doesn't get added to backStack. Instead of null i think you should pass String value as the name of the backStack you want to use.
I'm not 100% sure about this. You can read more about fragment transactions from here: https://developer.android.com/guide/fragments/transactions
