Android BottomNavigationView not shows-CodePudding

I want to implement BottomNavigationView in my Android app but my code does not displays this BottomNavigationView. Here is my code.

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {


private BottomNavigationView bottomNavView;
private int startingPosition, newPosition;
private final FragmentHome fragmentHome = new FragmentHome();

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

    setContentView(R.layout.main_activity);

    bottomNavView = findViewById(R.id.bottom_navigation);
    bottomNavView.setItemIconTintList(null);
    bottomNavView.setOnItemSelectedListener(item -> {
        showFragment(item.getItemId());
        return true;
    });
    FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
    ft.replace(R.id.content_frame, fragmentHome);
    bottomNavView.setSelectedItemId(R.id.action_home);
    ft.commit();
}

public void showFragment(int viewId) {
    Fragment fragment = null;

    switch (viewId) {
        case R.id.action_home:
            if (bottomNavView.getSelectedItemId() != R.id.action_home) {
                fragment = fragmentHome;
                newPosition = 0;
            }
            break;
    }

    if (fragment != null) {
        if (startingPosition > newPosition) {
            getSupportFragmentManager()
                    .beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.content_frame, fragment).commit();
        }
        if (startingPosition < newPosition) {
            getSupportFragmentManager()
                    .beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.content_frame, fragment).commit();
        }

        startingPosition = newPosition;
    }
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(final Menu menu) {
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_action_bar, menu);
    final MenuItem searchItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);
    SearchView searchView = (SearchView) searchItem.getActionView();
    searchView.addOnAttachStateChangeListener(new View.OnAttachStateChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onViewAttachedToWindow(View arg0) {
            setItemsVisibility(menu, searchItem, false);
        }

        @Override
        public void onViewDetachedFromWindow(View arg0) {
            setItemsVisibility(menu, searchItem, true);
        }
    });
    return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}

private void setItemsVisibility(Menu menu, MenuItem exception, boolean visible) {
    for (int i = 0; i < menu.size();   i) {
        MenuItem item = menu.getItem(i);
        if (item != exception) item.setVisible(visible);
    }
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}

        android:id="@ id/action_notifications"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher_foreground"

</menu>

Not only this BottomNavigationView not displays it even not occupies any vertical space.

Help me please!

EDIT

I also simplified my day/night themes but no effect.

EDIT 2

I know where! There is a problem with ft.replace(R.id.content_frame, fragmentHome); in onCreate. It shows things from fragment but skip BottomNavView from MainActivity But how to solve that?

FragmentHome.java

public class FragmentHome extends Fragment {

    private MyViewModel loginViewModel;

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

    @Override
    public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
        initBinding();

        loginViewModel.getText().observe(getViewLifecycleOwner(), new Observer<String>() {
            @Override
            public void onChanged(@Nullable String string) {
                Toast.makeText(requireActivity(), "cześć "   string, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });
    }

    private void initBinding() {
        FragmentHomeBinding binding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView((requireActivity()), R.layout.fragment_home);
        loginViewModel = new ViewModelProvider(this).get(MyViewModel.class);
        binding.setMyViewModel(loginViewModel);
        binding.setLifecycleOwner(this);
    }
}

fragment_home.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    </data>

    <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        <Button

            android:text="Button"

            android:onClick="@{ ()-> myViewModel.setText() }"/>

        <TextView
            android:id="@ id/tv"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@={myViewModel.text}"
            app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />


    </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
</layout>

CodePudding user response：

Does it return any errors? There is no problem in your code. Could you check the log?

CodePudding user response：

try to add layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@ id/content_frame"

CodePudding user response：

Add app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/bottom_navigation" line to FrameLayout and change it layout_height attribute to 0dp. You must specify limit for FrameLayout, otherwise it can overlay BottomNavigationBar

CodePudding user response：

SOLVED. The problem was with DataBinding in fragment. I needed to move initBinding() and return binding.getRoot() in onCreateView().
