Remove old Fragment from fragment manager

Question

I\'m trying to learn how to use Fragments in android. I\'m trying to remove old fragment when new fragment is calling in android.

Answer 1

I had the same issue to remove old fragments. I ended up clearing the layout that contained the fragments.

LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout) a.findViewById(R.id.layoutDeviceList);
layout.removeAllViewsInLayout();
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
...

I do not know if this creates leaks, but it works for me.
