I am writing an application that uses NFC to read some data stored on it. My application uses Fragments and Fragment don't come with onNewIntent() method. Since, the data I am reading is done with my separate class which handles NFC related operation, the only thing I need to do is update the TextView inside the Fragment. However this implementation can also be used to pass new Intent to the Fragment.
Here is my current implementation which makes use of an interface. I am calling the listener after new Intent is received and NFC related checks succeeds. This is the FragmentActivity which hosts Fragment.
public class Main extends FragmentActivity implements
ActionBar.OnNavigationListener {
private Bundle myBalanceBundle;
private NFC nfcObj;
private NewBalanceListener newBlanceListener;
@Override
public void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
setIntent(intent);
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
getNFCState();
super.onResume();
}
private void getNFCState() {
//Other NFC related codes
else if (nfc_state == NFC.NFC_STATE_ENABLED){
readNFCTag();
}
}
private void readNFCTag() {
//Other NFC related codes
if (getIntent().getAction().equals(NfcAdapter.ACTION_TECH_DISCOVERED)) {
nfcObj.setTag((Tag) getIntent().getParcelableExtra(
NfcAdapter.EXTRA_TAG));
nfcObj.readQuickBalance();
transitQuickReadFragment(nfcObj.getCurrentBalance());
}
}
private void transitQuickReadFragment(String balance) {
// Creates a balance bundle and calls to select MyBalance Fragment if it
// is not visible. Calls listener is it is already visible.
if (actionBar.getSelectedNavigationIndex() != 1) {
if (myBalanceBundle == null)
myBalanceBundle = new Bundle();
myBalanceBundle.putString(Keys.BALANCE.toString(), balance);
actionBar.setSelectedNavigationItem(1);
} else {
newBlanceListener.onNewBalanceRead(balance);
}
}
@Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(int position, long id) {
// Other fragment related codes
fragment = new MyBalance();
fragment.setArguments(myBalanceBundle);
newBlanceListener = (NewBalanceListener) fragment;
// Other fragment related codes
}
// Interface callbacks. You can pass new Intent here if your application
// requires it.
public interface NewBalanceListener {
public void onNewBalanceRead(String newBalance);
}
}
This is MyBalance Fragment which has TextView that needs to be updated whenever NFC is read:
public class MyBalance extends Fragment implements NewBalanceListener {
private TextView mybalance_value;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
//Other onCreateView related code
Bundle bundle = this.getArguments();
if (bundle != null)
mybalance_value.setText(bundle.getString(Keys.BALANCE.toString(),
"0.00"));
else
mybalance_value.setText("0.00");
//Other onCreateView related code
}
@Override
public void onNewBalanceRead(String newBalance) {
mybalance_value.setText(newBalance);
}
}
This code works perfectly like expected for my application but, I want to know if there is better way to handle new Intent from Fragments?
