I am using AIDE on Android to code. Currently it claims to support Android 10 on which I am also coding. I would like to have a tab at the top of my app where the number of entries is larger than the with of the screen so I can scroll the entries with my thumb and click to display different data entry fields corresponding to the tab I click on for my app.
So, I have tried the following:
main.xml
<!-- ViewPager2 element with a TabLayout -->
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:id="@+id/tab_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
android:id="@+id/pager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
MainActivity.java
package com.mycompany.vp;
import android.app.*;
import android.os.*;
public class MainActivity extends Activity
{
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
CollectionDemoFragment.java
package com.mycompany.vp;
// Integrating TabLayout with ViewPager2
public class CollectionDemoFragment : Fragment() {
...
@Override
public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
TabLayout tabLayout = view.findViewById(R.id.tab_layout);
new TabLayoutMediator(tabLayout, viewPager,
(tab, position) -> tab.setText("OBJECT " + (position + 1))
).attach();
}
...
}
However, in my fragment code, I get unexpected end of declaration errors. I'm not sure whether I need fragments for ViewPager or ViewPager2 to work and I'm not clear what code I need, especially what code I need in AIDE since it might not support every Android Studio construct and I don't have a PC.
If I delete the CollectionDemoFragment.java I can compile my code, but then when I try to run it it crashes. Any ideas about how I can get the tabs working and the app compiling from AIDE and running without crashing?
Thanks.
