The method getApplicationContext() is undefined - fragment issues
I am getting the following errors: The method getApplicationContext() is undefined The method findViewById(int) is undefined for the type Fragment1
These errors seem to be eliminated when my class is extended to an Activity as oppose to a fragment, but it is important that this activity remains as a fragment, so I am not too sure how to work this out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Below is the code
public class Fragment1 extends Fragment {
private String currentUserId;
private ArrayAdapter<String> namesArrayAdapter;
private ArrayList<String> names;
private ListView usersListView;
private Button logoutButton;
String userGender = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getString("Gender");
String activityName = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getString("ActivityName");
Number maxDistance = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getNumber("Maximum_Distance");
String userLookingGender = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getString("Looking_Gender");
Number minimumAge = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getNumber("Minimum_Age");
Number maximumAge = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getNumber("Maximum_Age");
Number userage = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getNumber("Age");
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (container == null){
return null;
}
return (LinearLayout)inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment1_layout,
container,false);
logoutButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.logoutButton);
logoutButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
ParseUser.logOut();
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), LoginActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
setConversationsList();
}
private void setConversationsList() {
currentUserId = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getObjectId();
names = new ArrayList<String>();
// String userActivitySelectionName = null;
ParseQuery<ParseUser> query = ParseUser.getQuery();
// query.whereEqualTo("ActivityName",userActivitySelectionName);
query.whereNotEqualTo("objectId", ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getObjectId());
// users with Gender = currentUser.Looking_Gender
query.whereEqualTo("Gender", userLookingGender);
// users with Looking_Gender = currentUser.Gender
query.whereEqualTo("Looking_Gender", userGender);
query.setLimit(1);
query.whereEqualTo("ActivityName", activityName);
query.whereGreaterThanOrEqualTo("Minimum_Age", minimumAge).whereGreaterThanOrEqualTo("Age", userage);
query.whereLessThanOrEqualTo("Maximum_Age", maximumAge).whereLessThanOrEqualTo("Age", userage);
// query.whereWithinKilometers("Maximum_Distance", point, maxDistance)
query.findInBackground(new FindCallback<ParseUser>() {
public void done(List<ParseUser> userList, ParseException e) {
if (e == null) {
for (int i=0; i<userList.size(); i++) {
names.add(userList.get(i).get("Name").toString());
names.add(userList.get(i).get("Headline").toString());
names.add(userList.get(i).get("Age").toString());
// names.add(userList.get(i).getParseObject("ProfilePicture").;
}
usersListView = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.usersListView);
namesArrayAdapter =
new ArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(),
R.layout.user_list_item, names);
usersListView.setAdapter(namesArrayAdapter);
usersListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> a, View v, int i, long l) {
openConversation(names, i);
}
});
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Error loading user list",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});
}
public void openConversation(ArrayList<String> names, int pos) {
ParseQuery<ParseUser> query = ParseUser.getQuery();
query.whereEqualTo("Name", names.get(pos));
query.findInBackground(new FindCallback<ParseUser>() {
public void done(List<ParseUser> user, ParseException e) {
if (e == null) {
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MessagingActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("RECIPIENT_ID", user.get(0).getObjectId());
startActivity(intent);
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Error finding that user",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
}
}
Update Unreachable code error for setConversationList
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (container == null){
return null;
}
return (LinearLayout)inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment1_layout,
container,false);
setConversationsList();
}
private void setConversationsList() {
currentUserId = ParseUser.getCurrentUser().getObjectId();
names = new ArrayList<String>();
// String userActivitySelectionName = null;
ParseQuery<ParseUser> query = ParseUser.getQuery();
Update
Upon launching the activity, I received the following message:

Answer
You can get the activity that contains the fragment with getActivity().
Therefore getActivity().getApplicationContext() would work.
getActivity().findViewById(int) would also work.
Make sure, though, you don't use getActivity() prior to onActivityCreated(), since it would return null prior to that.
