How do I change the ActionBar title from the fragment class in Android Studio?

Please help me…

I use the built-in Navigation Drawer Activity in Android Studio

What I want is to change the column title from fragment…

Here is my code

Solution

Depending on your code, you don’t need to change the action bar title in the fragment

You can change it in your switch case

@Override
public void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position) {
     update the main content by replacing fragments
    Fragment fragment = null;
    String title = "";

switch (position) {
        case 0:
            fragment = new HomeFragment();
            title="Home";
            break;
        case 1:
            fragment = new AccountFragment();
            title="Accounts";
            break;
    }
    if (fragment == null) {
        fragment = new HomeFragment();
    }
     update the main content by replacing fragments
    FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
    fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
            .replace(R.id.container, fragment)
            .commit();

getSupportActionBar().setTitle(title);
}

Even if you want to change the actionbar from the fragment using the interface
Create an interface in the fragment
Implementing an Interface in an Activity
When you want to use the callback to call the interface function in the Activity to change the actionbar
