Answer 1

Communication between Fragments

There can be many scenarios where communication between fragment is required. You need to pass data between fragments on button click event. You may also use Android toolbar to switch between fragments. When you add buttons to your toolbar, you need to dynamically change screen using fragment.

Create an interface which will help us to communicate

Communicate.java

package com.example.amaanmemon.testfragment;

interface Communicate {
 public void sendData();
}

TopFragment.java

package com.example.amaanmemon.testfragment;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class TopFragment extends Fragment {

EditText  firstName;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    View view=inflater.inflate(R.layout.my_fragment1, container, false);
    return view;
}

public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    firstName = (EditText) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.editText1);
}

public String getData(){
    return firstName.getText().toString();
}
}

MiddleFragment.java

package com.example.amaanmemon.testfragment;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.Button;

public class MiddleFragment extends Fragment implements OnClickListener{

View view;
Button btn;
Communicate cm;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    view=inflater.inflate(R.layout.my_fragment2, container, false);
    return  view;
}

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    cm = (Communicate) getActivity();
    btn = (Button) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.button1);
    btn.setOnClickListener(this);
}

@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    cm.sendData();
}
}

BottomFragment.java

package com.example.amaanmemon.testfragment;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class BottomFragment extends Fragment{

int count;
View view;
TextView display_text;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    view=inflater.inflate(R.layout.my_fragment3, container,false);
    return view;
}

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    display_text = (TextView)getActivity().findViewById(R.id.textView1);
}

public void incrementData(String displayText){
    display_text.setText(displayText);
}
}

MainActivity.java

package com.example.amaanmemon.testfragment;

import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentTransaction;

public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements Communicate{

TopFragment frg;
MiddleFragment frg1;
BottomFragment frg2;
FragmentTransaction transaction;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    frg = new TopFragment();
    frg1 = new MiddleFragment();
    frg2 = new BottomFragment();

    FragmentManager manager=getSupportFragmentManager();
    transaction=manager.beginTransaction();
    transaction.add(R.id.My_Container_1_ID, frg, "Frag_Top_tag");
    transaction.add(R.id.My_Container_2_ID, frg1, "Frag_Middle_tag");
    transaction.add(R.id.My_Container_3_ID, frg2, "Frag_Bottom_tag");
    transaction.commit();
}

@Override
public void sendData() {
    String temp = frg.getData();
    frg2.incrementData(temp);
}
}

You can copy xml files from question. you can watch the output below.
