I get this error message, when I open a closed App again via App-Change button:
Caused by: java.lang.InstantiationException: can't instantiate class com.*.FragmentContact$1; no empty constructor
I've found several tips about Inner-Classes and to make them static etc. But this FragmentContact is a public class in a *.java-file and has a public empty constructor. I'm using Google Maps Api v2 in this project and do a trick somewhere from the internet to setup my MapView. Look here:
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_contact, null);
try {
MapsInitializer.initialize(this.getActivity().getApplicationContext());
} catch (GooglePlayServicesNotAvailableException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
fragment = new SupportMapFragment() {
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
mMap = fragment.getMap();
if (mMap != null) {
setupMap();
}
}
};
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment_orte_map_parent, fragment).commit();
return v;
}
When I cut this MapView-thing out everything work fine. Maybe someone can explain what I'm doing wrong.

But these FragmentContact is a public class in a *.java-file and has a public empty constructor.
The error is not complaining about FragmentContact
. It is complaining about the first inner class of FragmentContact
(FragmentContact$1
). You cannot have a Fragment
implemented as an inner class of anything, as it cannot be instantiated from outside the outer class. A static
inner class is fine.
