How to handle button clicks using the XML onClick within Fragments

Question

Pre-Honeycomb (Android 3), each Activity was registered to handle button clicks via the onClick tag in a Layout\'s XML:

android:onClick=\"m         


        

Answer 1

The problem I think is that the view is still the activity, not the fragment. The fragments doesn't have any independent view of its own and is attached to the parent activities view. Thats why the event ends up in the Activity, not the fragment. Its unfortunate, but I think you will need some code to make this work.

What I've been doing during conversions is simply adding a click listener that calls the old event handler.

for instance:

final Button loginButton = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.loginButton);
loginButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(final View v) {
        onLoginClicked(v);
    }
});
