Fragment activity catch onKeyDown and use in fragment

I have Fragment activity with pager:

List fragments = new Vector();
    fragments.add(Fragment.instantiate(this, PastEventLis         


        

Answer 1

If someone is interessed how to do it with Boradcast:

In your fragment in onViewCreated

@Override
public void onViewCreated(View view, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);


// Register to receive messages.
// We are registering an observer (mMessageReceiver) to receive Intents
// with actions named "custom-event-name".
 LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mMessageReceiver,
 new IntentFilter("activity-says-hi"));

...}

 // Our handler for received Intents. This will be called whenever an Intent
 // with an action named "custom-event-name" is broadcasted.
 private BroadcastReceiver mMessageReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
 @Override
 public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
 // Get extra data included in the Intent

 doSomethingCauseVolumeKeyPressed();

 }
};

your keyevent - code to put in activity

@Override
public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent event) {
    int action = event.getAction();
    int keyCode = event.getKeyCode();
    switch (keyCode) {
        case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_UP:
            if (action == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                sendBroadcast();
            }
            return true;
        case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN:
            if (action == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                sendBroadcast();
            }
            return true;
        default:
            return super.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
    }
}

your broadcast sender:

private void  sendVolumeBroadcast(){
    Intent intent = new Intent("activity-says-hi");
    LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).sendBroadcast(intent);
}
