317 PointsGetting error in FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
Find below code:
package com.example.i7.fragments;
import android.content.res.Configuration; import android.support.v4.app.Fragment; import android.app.FragmentManager; import android.support.v4.app.FragmentTransaction; import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity; import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Configuration config = getResources().getConfiguration();
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction =
fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
if (config.orientation== Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){
LM_Fragement lm_fragement= new LM_Fragement();
fragmentTransaction.replace(android.R.id,lm_fragement);
}
else{
PM_Fragment pm_fragment = new PM_Fragment();
fragmentTransaction.replace(android.R.id, pm_fragment);
}
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
}

28,694 PointsI don't know Android, but I took a look. I've seen a couple similar errors related to mixing libraries resulting from faulty import statements. The android.app.FragmentManager beginTransaction method returns a android.app.FragmentTransaction, which doesn't seem to be able to be be accepted as a android.support.v4.app.FragmentTransaction (which is what your import statement indicated is the full type of FragmentTransaction). (sorry i couldn't be more help. i don't know how these libraries are meant to relate to each other )
