Context Menu on ListView inside Fragments

Question

I've searched everywhere and I also tried every code I looked into but unfortunately none of them worked. :( I already added registerForContextMenu() method but it still won't pop a menu when i click on an item in my list. Please help. I'm going crazy already. :( Here's what I got so far...

public class BorrowersFragment extends Fragment {
// TODO: Rename parameter arguments, choose names that match
// the fragment initialization parameters, e.g. ARG_ITEM_NUMBER
Button btnSearch,btnGetAll;

private static final String ARG_PARAM1 = "param1";
private static final String ARG_PARAM2 = "param2";

// TODO: Rename and change types of parameters
private String mParam1;
private String mParam2;

private OnFragmentInteractionListener mListener;

public BorrowersFragment() {
    // Required empty public constructor
}

/**
 * Use this factory method to create a new instance of
 * this fragment using the provided parameters.
 *
 * @param param1 Parameter 1.
 * @param param2 Parameter 2.
 * @return A new instance of fragment BorrowersFragment.
 */
// TODO: Rename and change types and number of parameters
public static BorrowersFragment newInstance(String param1, String param2) {
    BorrowersFragment fragment = new BorrowersFragment();
    Bundle args = new Bundle();
    args.putString(ARG_PARAM1, param1);
    args.putString(ARG_PARAM2, param2);
    fragment.setArguments(args);
    return fragment;
}

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    if (getArguments() != null) {
        mParam1 = getArguments().getString(ARG_PARAM1);
        mParam2 = getArguments().getString(ARG_PARAM2);
    }

}

        registerForContextMenu(lv);
    }else{
        Toast.makeText(this.getContext(),"No student!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

    return  borrowerView;

Please do note that this fragment is called/shown when I choose it from a navigation drawer which is inside a MainActivity. Hope you can help me. Thanks!

Answer 1

forgive my innocence... this is so embarassing. its actually working. I just have to long click it.

XD I'm so sorry for the waste of time. Cheers everyone.

Answer 2

Do you want to open a menu when user clicks on a ListView item?

So you can simply set an OnLongClickListener (or a simple OnClickListener depending on what you are trying to do) on the items and open an :

android.support.v7.widget.PopupMenu:

@Override
public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
    PopupMenu menu = new   PopupMenu(YourActivity.this, listItem);
    menu.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.your_menu_file, menu.getMenu());
    menu.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
      @Override
      public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
          case R.id.your_first_menu_item:
            // do something
            break;
        }
        return false;
      }
   });
   menu.show();
   return false;
}
