  1. POGetting "Fragment did not create a view" after adition of other Fragment without UI
    text
    copied!<p>I'm having a really weird problem. I have a common fragment that is added in almost every activity of my app. This fragment shows a small version of the player bar. So it listens some broadcasts to update the current music's name and has some controls, like play/pause.</p> <p>Like I said, I add this fragment in almost every activity of my app and I've never had any problem with it. But now, I needed to create a new Fragment that has no UI and that is retained (setRetainInstance(true)). After the adition of this new Fragment, everything seemed to be ok. Until I rotated the device and the activity crashed.</p> <p>So, looking in the log, I see the following exception:</p> <pre><code>07-05 14:10:23.818: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(25922): FATAL EXCEPTION: main java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.soongz/com.soongz.ui.PlaylistActivity}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #13: Error inflating class fragment at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2110) at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2135) at android.app.ActivityThread.handleRelaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:3576) at android.app.ActivityThread.access$800(ActivityThread.java:140) at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1243) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4921) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:511) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:1027) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:794) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #13: Error inflating class fragment at android.view.LayoutInflater.createViewFromTag(LayoutInflater.java:704) at android.view.LayoutInflater.rInflate(LayoutInflater.java:746) at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:489) at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:396) at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:352) at com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow.setContentView(PhoneWindow.java:313) at com.actionbarsherlock.internal.ActionBarSherlockNative.setContentView(ActionBarSherlockNative.java:119) at com.actionbarsherlock.app.SherlockFragmentActivity.setContentView(SherlockFragmentActivity.java:262) at net.simonvt.menudrawer.MenuDrawer.setContentView(MenuDrawer.java:964) at com.soongz.ui.BaseComMenuActivity.setContentViewComMenu(BaseComMenuActivity.java:31) at com.soongz.ui.PlaylistActivity.createView(PlaylistActivity.java:111) at br.com.cybereagle.androidlibrary.ui.EagleActivity.onCreate(EagleActivity.java:57) at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:5206) at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1094) at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2074) ... 12 more Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment com.soongz.ui.fragment.PlayerReduzidoFragment did not create a view. at android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity.onCreateView(FragmentActivity.java:303) at android.view.LayoutInflater.createViewFromTag(LayoutInflater.java:676) ... 26 more </code></pre> <p>This exception is happening in the Fragment that was already in the Activity, instead of happening in the new Fragment. If I remove the fragment with the small version of the player bar and keep the new Fragment without UI, everything works normally. It also works if I keep just the old fragment and remove the new one.</p> <p>More details: The old fragment is added via layout XML. Here is the XML of the Activity:</p> <pre><code>&lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"&gt; &lt;fragment android:name="com.soongz.ui.fragment.ListaDeMusicasFragment" android:id="@+id/lista_de_musicas_fragment" style="?layoutListViewMusicas" /&gt; &lt;fragment android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:name="com.soongz.ui.fragment.PlayerReduzidoFragment"/&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>The new fragment (wih no UI) is added in the following way:</p> <pre><code>FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager(); operacoesEmBackgroundFragment = (OperacoesEmBackgroundFragment) fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag(TAG_OPERACOES_EM_BACKGROUND_FRAGMENT); if(operacoesEmBackgroundFragment == null){ operacoesEmBackgroundFragment = new OperacoesEmBackgroundFragment(); fragmentManager.beginTransaction() .add(operacoesEmBackgroundFragment, TAG_OPERACOES_EM_BACKGROUND_FRAGMENT) .commit(); } </code></pre> <p>Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me.</p> <p>UPDATE:</p> <p>I removed the setRetainInstance(true) from the fragment with no UI to see if the problem is related to this. But the problem is still occurring.</p>
