Attempting to create ListFragment crashes

Question

I'm trying to add a ListFragment to an Activity in Gingerbread, but Android crashes when the Activity is created and there is no stack trace. I have verified that I'm using the compatibility library imports. Here is my code for the ListFragment:

import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.ListFragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.*;

public class ListViewFragment extends ListFragment {
  @Override
  public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    List listData = getListData().

    setListAdapter(new ListViewAdapter(getActivity(), listData));
  }

  class ListViewAdapter extends BaseAdapter implements ListAdapter {
    .
    .
    .
  }    
}

I also tried:

ListView listView = getListView();
listView.setAdapter(new ListViewAdapter(getActivity(), listData);

in place of the setListAdapter() call with the same results.

When I extend from just a Fragment and inflate a layout file with a ListView, it works fine. There seems to be something different when I try to use the inherent ListView in the ListFragment.

Any insight would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

try it in onCreateView better than onActivityCreated.

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View v = super.onCreateView( inflater, container, savedInstanceState );
    List listData = getListData().
    setListAdapter(new ListViewAdapter(getActivity(), listData));  
    return v;
}//met

Answer 2

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.your_layout, container, false);
    return v;
}

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
        // Set up your list in here
}
