Stuck on Code challenge

We have a Button (mDeleteButton) in our Fragment class below. Set it to the button in the layout with the ID of 'deleteButton'.

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

public class PhotoFragment extends Fragment {

public Button mDeleteButton;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_photo, container, false);
    return rootView;
}

}

Hi Moresh, this is a tricky one. You need to set the Button inside the onCreateView class, and since it's a fragment, we need to call the findViewById() Method from our rootView that was created. So this is how your onCreateView should look like:

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_photo, container, false);
        mDeleteButton = (Button) rootView.findViewById(R.id.deleteButton); // This is how your Button should be set :)
        return rootView;
    }
