I am trying to detect when a fragment becomes visible on a swipe view, in order to update its content when it does become visible. I am doing it like this.

public class MyFragment extends Fragment {
  @Override
  public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
    super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser);
    if (isVisibleToUser) { }
    else {  }
  }
}

The thing is when I go to the page be swipping through it works great but when I select the page in the tab it crashes "Attempt to invoke virtual method".

Please help me, thanks

I have a main activity, and then an activity for each fragment.

Main:

public class Principal extends ActionBarActivity implements ActionBar.TabListener {

SectionsPagerAdapter mSectionsPagerAdapter;

/**
 * The {@link ViewPager} that will host the section contents.
 */
ViewPager mViewPager;

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

    // Set up the action bar.
    final ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
    actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);

    // Create the adapter that will return a fragment for each of the three
    // primary sections of the activity.
    mSectionsPagerAdapter = new SectionsPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());

    // Set up the ViewPager with the sections adapter.
    mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
    mViewPager.setAdapter(mSectionsPagerAdapter);

    // When swiping between different sections, select the corresponding
    // tab. We can also use ActionBar.Tab#select() to do this if we have
    // a reference to the Tab.
    mViewPager.setOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.SimpleOnPageChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onPageSelected(int position) {
            actionBar.setSelectedNavigationItem(position);
        }
    });

    // For each of the sections in the app, add a tab to the action bar.
    for (int i = 0; i < mSectionsPagerAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
        // Create a tab with text corresponding to the page title defined by
        // the adapter. Also specify this Activity object, which implements
        // the TabListener interface, as the callback (listener) for when
        // this tab is selected.
        actionBar.addTab(
                actionBar.newTab()
                        .setText(mSectionsPagerAdapter.getPageTitle(i))
                        .setTabListener(this));
    }







}


@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_principal, menu);
    return true;
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
    // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
    // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
    int id = item.getItemId();

    //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
    if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
        return true;
    }

    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

@Override
public void onTabSelected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {


        mViewPager.setCurrentItem(tab.getPosition());

}

@Override
public void onTabUnselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
}

@Override
public void onTabReselected(ActionBar.Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
}

/**

public class SectionsPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {

    public SectionsPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {

    }

    @Override

        switch (position) {

            case 2:
                return fragment = new Entradas();
            case 3:

    @Override

        Locale l = Locale.getDefault();
        switch (position) {
            case 0:
                return getString(R.string.title_config).toUpperCase(l);
            case 1:
                return getString(R.string.title_saidas).toUpperCase(l);
            case 2:

            case 3:
                return getString(R.string.title_enviar).toUpperCase(l);
            case 4:
                return getString(R.string.title_historico).toUpperCase(l);
            case 5:
                return getString(R.string.title_status).toUpperCase(l);
        }
        return null;
    }
}

/**
 * A placeholder fragment containing a simple view.
 */
public static class PlaceholderFragment extends Fragment {
    /**
     * The fragment argument representing the section number for this
     * fragment.
     */
    private static final String ARG_SECTION_NUMBER = "section_number";

    /**
     * Returns a new instance of this fragment for the given section
     * number.
     */
    public static PlaceholderFragment newInstance(int sectionNumber) {
        PlaceholderFragment fragment = new PlaceholderFragment();
        Bundle args = new Bundle();
        args.putInt(ARG_SECTION_NUMBER, sectionNumber);
        fragment.setArguments(args);
        return fragment;
    }

    public PlaceholderFragment() {
    }

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

}

and then the fragments are:

public class Entradas extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    }

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_entradas, container, false);

    }

    @Override
    public void setMenuVisibility(final boolean visible) {
        super.setMenuVisibility(visible);
        if (visible) {
             run code here....
    }
}

There are 2 ways in which you can do this:

From the fragment you can call isVisible();

Return true if the fragment is currently visible to the user. This means it: (1) has been added, (2) has its view attached to the window, and (3) is not hidden.

From the parent activity you can do the following:

public boolean checkIsFragVisible() {
        Fragment yourFragment = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(FRAG_HOLDER_ID);
        return yourFragment != null && yourFragment.isVisible();
    }

Can this be overriden?Timaru
You call it just like that anywhere in the fragmentCovarrubias
But I want to run some code every time the fragment is shown. I edited my question, take a lookTimaru
Then use the second method in the activity that holds your swipe viewCovarrubias
you can even use a method like yourFragment instanceOf Config.class to see what kind of fragment it is. I use the second method in my navigator activity to check which fragment is currently active in my activity and then run other methods off the result.Covarrubias
And cant I run that code on each fragment activity rather then on the main activity?Timaru
why cant you use isVisible() inside each fragment?Covarrubias
And when do I call it? Isn't it simillar to what I already have? if I do it, it works sliding through the fragments but doesnt work when I select one on the tabTimaru
Post your logcat pleaseCovarrubias
I get attemp to invoke virtual methodTimaru
