Java – The title in the drawer navigation layout toolbar has not changed

When you select a fragment based on the fragment name specified in mTitle, mTitle does not display the effect on the toolbar. It simply displays the app name in each fragment. Please help !!!!

Fix the code above.

Your “event” Fragment class never calls onSectionAttached as part of the implementation of the interface in the PlaceholderFragment created as a guide. You should code the fragment in a similar way and implement its corresponding interface.

In your fragment

:

events.java

import android.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;

/**
 * Created by sukhvir on 17/04/2015.    
*/
public class events extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment {
    public events(){}
    private static final int ARG_SECTION_NUMBER = 5;
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater,
                         ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        /**
         * Inflate the layout for this fragment
         */
        return inflater.inflate(
            R.layout.events, container, false);
    }

@Override
    public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
        super.onAttach(activity);
        ((MainActivity) activity).onSectionAttached(
            ARG_SECTION_NUMBER);
    }
}

And in :

MainActivity.java

public void onSectionAttached(int number) {
switch (number) {
    case 1:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.home);
        break;
    case 2:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.academics);
        break;
    case 3:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.about);
        break;
    case 4:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.student);
        break;
    case 5:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.alumni);
        break;
    case 6:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.events);
        break;
    case 7:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.media);
        break;
    case 8:
        mTitle = getString(R.string.contact);
        break;
    }
    setTitle();
}

private void setTitle() {
    getSupportActionBar().setTitle(mTitle);
}

I hope you understand.
The above code works fine, you might want to understand the process and clean it up.
