Android swipe and tabs ui - what is "best practice" and up to date? -

March 15, 2010

i have used in past "android actionbar fragmentpageradapter , viewpager" seems little out of date - there newer, more advanced/better guideline/technique stuff ?

android 4.4

for example:

private viewpager viewpager; private tabspageradapter madapter; private actionbar actionbar;

and tabspageradapter class:

public class tabspageradapter extends fragmentpageradapter {      frontendcontroller context;     wearlistfragment wearlistfragment;     mobilelistfragment mobilelistfragment;     favouritelistfragment favouritelistfragment;     advancedcontrolfragment advancedcontrolfragment;     controlfragment controlfragment;     setupfragment setupfragment;     statusfragment statusfragment;          public tabspageradapter(fragmentmanager fm,frontendcontroller context) {             super(fm);             this.context =context;          }      // "setup", "advanced","favourite","status","control", "mobile", "wear"      @override         public fragment getitem(int index) {              switch (index) {                 case 0:                     //setup                     setupfragment = new setupfragment();                     setupfragment.setcontext(context);                     return setupfragment;                  case 1:                     advancedcontrolfragment = new advancedcontrolfragment();                     advancedcontrolfragment.setcontext(context);                     return advancedcontrolfragment;                   case 2:                     favouritelistfragment= new favouritelistfragment();                     favouritelistfragment.setcontext(context,this);                     return favouritelistfragment;                   case 3:                     statusfragment = new statusfragment();                     statusfragment.setcontext(context);                     return statusfragment;                  case 4:                     controlfragment = new controlfragment();                     controlfragment.setcontext(context);                     return controlfragment;                   case 5:                     mobilelistfragment = new mobilelistfragment();                     mobilelistfragment.setcontext(context);                     return mobilelistfragment;                  case 6:                     wearlistfragment = new wearlistfragment();                     wearlistfragment.setcontext(context);                     return wearlistfragment;             }              return null;         }          @override         public int getcount() {             // item count - equal number of tabs             return 7;         }      public wearlistfragment getwearlistfragment() {         return wearlistfragment;     }      public mobilelistfragment getmobilelistfragment() {         return mobilelistfragment;     }      public favouritelistfragment getfavouritelistfragment() {         return favouritelistfragment;     }   }
