1) the implicit this in your call to runOnUiThread is referring to AsyncTask, not your fragment. 2) Fragment doesn't have runOnUiThread. // A class instance private Handler mHandler = new Handler(Looper. getMainLooper()); // anywhere else in your code mHandler.
This is how you can show an Android Toast message from a Fragment: Toast. makeText(getActivity(), "Click!", Toast.
Basically what runOnUiThread() will do is - Runs the specified action on the UI thread. It will check the current thread and if it finds its the MainThread it will execute that task immediately , otherwise first it will switch you to app MainThread and then it will execute the given task.
Try this: getActivity().runOnUiThread(new Runnable...
It's because:
1) the implicit this
in your call to runOnUiThread
is referring to AsyncTask, not your fragment.
2) Fragment
doesn't have runOnUiThread.
However, Activity
does.
Note that Activity
just executes the Runnable
if you're already on the main thread, otherwise it uses a Handler
. You can implement a Handler
in your fragment if you don't want to worry about the context of this
, it's actually very easy:
// A class instance
private Handler mHandler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());
// anywhere else in your code
mHandler.post(<your runnable>);
// ^ this will always be run on the next run loop on the main thread.
EDIT: @rciovati is right, you are in onPostExecute
, that's already on the main thread.
fun Fragment?.runOnUiThread(action: () -> Unit) {
this ?: return
if (!isAdded) return // Fragment not attached to an Activity
activity?.runOnUiThread(action)
}
Then, in any Fragment
you can just call runOnUiThread
. This keeps calls consistent across activities and fragments.
runOnUiThread {
// Call your code here
}
NOTE: If
Fragment
is no longer attached to anActivity
, callback will not be called and no exception will be thrown
If you want to access this style from anywhere, you can add a common object and import the method:
object ThreadUtil {
private val handler = Handler(Looper.getMainLooper())
fun runOnUiThread(action: () -> Unit) {
if (Looper.myLooper() != Looper.getMainLooper()) {
handler.post(action)
} else {
action.invoke()
}
}
}
For Kotlin on fragment just do this
activity?.runOnUiThread(Runnable {
//on main thread
})
In Xamarin.Android
For Fragment:
this.Activity.RunOnUiThread(() => { yourtextbox.Text="Hello"; });
For Activity:
RunOnUiThread(() => { yourtextbox.Text="Hello"; });
