How to get ChildFragmentManager inside a Fragment that inflate's a ViewPager with Fragments

Here is how my hierarchy looks like:

MainActivity -> Fragment -> Dialog -> ViewPager -> Fragment 1, 2, 3

Getting the SupportFragmentManager works by casting:

FragmentManager fragmentManager = ((AppCompatActivity) mContext).getSupportFragmentManager();

However I can't seem to get the ChildFragmentManager. 

((AppCompatActivity) mContext).getChildFragmentManager()

is not valid.

A regular dialog doesn't have a FragmentManager, so you could not add a Fragment based ViewPager inside of it.

Instead, you should use a DialogFragment as per the Dialogs documentation and override its onCreateDialog() to create your Dialog. In a DialogFragment, you can use getChildFragmentManager() with a ViewPager.
