Duplicate ID tag null or parent id with another fragment for com google android gms maps MapFragment

Question

I have an application with three tabs   Each tab has its own layout  xml file  The main xml has its own map fragment  It s the one that shows up when the application first launches   Everything works fine except for when I change between tabs  If I try to switch back to the map fragment tab  I get this error  Switching to and between other tabs works just fine   What could be wrong here   This is my main class and my main xml  as well as a relevant class that I use   you will also find the error log at the bottom    main class  package com nfc demo   import android app ActionBar  import

Another solution   if  view    null        view   inflater inflate R layout nearbyplaces  container  false       That s it  if not null you don t need to reinitialize it removing from parent is unnecessary step

Try setting an id  android id    id maps dialog   for your mapView parent layout  Works for me

The answer Matt suggests works  but it cause the map to be recreated and redrawn  which isn t always desirable  After lots of trial and error  I found a solution that works for me   private static View view    Override public View onCreateView LayoutInflater inflater  ViewGroup container  Bundle savedInstanceState        if  view    null            ViewGroup parent    ViewGroup  view getParent            if  parent    null              parent removeView view             try           view   inflater inflate R layout map  container  false         catch  InflateException e               map is already there  just return view as it is              return view      For good measure  here s  map xml   R layout map  with R id mapFragment  android id    id mapFragment      lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt LinearLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android id    id mapLayout      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent   gt        lt fragment xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android          android id    id mapFragment          android layout width  match parent          android layout height  match parent          class  com google android gms maps SupportMapFragment    gt   lt  LinearLayout gt    I hope this helps  but I can t guarantee that it doesn t have any adverse effects   Edit  There were some adverse effects  such as when exiting the application and starting it again  Since the application isn t necessarily completely shut down  but just put to sleep in the background   the previous code i submitted would fail upon restarting the application  I ve updated the code to something that works for me  both going in  amp  out of the map and exiting and restarting the application  I m not too happy with the try-catch bit  but it seem to work well enough  When looking at the stack trace it occurred to me that I could just check if the map fragment is in the FragmentManager  no need for the try-catch block  code updated   More edits  Turns out you need that try-catch after all  Just checking for the map fragment turned out not to work so well after all  Blergh

Nested fragments are not currently supported  Try Support Package  revision 11

I had this in viewPager and the crash was because any fragment had to have its own tag  duplicate tags or ids for same fragment are not allowed

User · Answer

I have lost hours today to find the reason  fortunately this issue is not because of MapFragment implementation  fnfortunately  this does not work because nested fragments are only supported through support library from rev 11   My implementation has an activity with actionbar  in tabbed mode  with two tabs  no viewpager   one having the map and the other having a list of entries  Of course I ve been quite naive to use MapFragment inside my tab-fragments  et voila the app crashed everytime I switched back to map-tab     The same issue I also would have in case my tab-fragment would inflate any layout containing any other fragment     One option is to use the MapView  instead of MapFragment   with some overhead though   see MapView Docs as drop-in replacement in the layout xml  another option is to use support-library up from rev  11 but then take programmatic approach since nested fragments are neither supported via layout  Or just working around programmatically by explicitely destroying the fragment  like in the answer from Matt   Vidar   btw  same effect is achieved using the MapView  option 1    But actually  I did not want to loose the map everytime I tab away  that is  I wanted to keep it in memory and cleanup only upon activity close  so I decided to simply hide show the map while tabbing  see FragmentTransaction   hide

You are returning or inflating layout twice  just check to see if you only inflate once

I respect all the answers but i found this one liner solution  If n Is the Number of tabs then    mViewPager setOffscreenPageLimit n     Example  In case mentioned     mViewPager setOffscreenPageLimit 2     View pager implements a queue so  you don t have to let it remove that fragment  onCreateView is called only once

I am a bit late to the party but Non of these answer helped me in my case  I was using Google map as SupportMapFragment and PlaceAutocompleteFragment both in my fragment  As all the answers pointed to the fact that the problem is with SupportMapFragment being the map to be recreated and redrawn But after digging found out my problem was actually with PlaceAutocompleteFragment  So here is the working solution for those who are facing this problem because of SupportMapFragment and SupportMapFragment     Global SupportMapFragment mapFragment   mapFragment    SupportMapFragment  getChildFragmentManager   findFragmentById R id mapFragment       FragmentManager fm   getChildFragmentManager         if  mapFragment    null            mapFragment   SupportMapFragment newInstance            fm beginTransaction   replace R id mapFragment  mapFragment  commit            fm executePendingTransactions               mapFragment getMapAsync this          Global PlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragment        if  autocompleteFragment    null            autocompleteFragment    PlaceAutocompleteFragment  getActivity   getFragmentManager   findFragmentById R id place autoCompleteFragment            And in onDestroyView clear the SupportMapFragment and SupportMapFragment   Override public void onDestroyView         super onDestroyView          if  getActivity      null            Log e  res   place dlted            android app FragmentManager fragmentManager   getActivity   getFragmentManager            android app FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction   fragmentManager beginTransaction            fragmentTransaction remove autocompleteFragment           fragmentTransaction commit              Use commitAllowingStateLoss   if getting exception           autocompleteFragment   null

Things to Note here is your app will crash badly in either of two cases -     1  In order to reuse fragment with Maps again MapView Fragment must be removed when   your fragment showing Maps got replaced with other fragment in onDestroyView callback       else when you try to inflate same fragment twice Duplicate ID  tag null  or parent id with another fragment for com google android gms maps MapFragment error will happen        2  Secondly you must not mix app Fragment operations with   android support v4 app Fragment API operations eg do not use   android app FragmentTransaction to remove v4 app Fragment type    MapView  Fragment  Mixing this will again result into crash from fragment side     Here is sample code snippet for correct usage of MapView  import android content

As mentioned by  Justin Breitfeller   Vidar Wahlberg solution is a hack which might not work in future version of Android   Vidar Wahlberg perfer a hack because other solution might  cause the map to be recreated and redrawn  which isn t always desirable   Map redraw could be prevented by maintaining the old map fragment  rather than creating a new instance every time   Matt solution doesn t work for me  IllegalStateException  As quoted by  Justin Breitfeller   You cannot inflate a layout into a fragment when that layout includes a   Nested fragments are only supported when added to a fragment dynamically     My solution    Override public View onCreateView LayoutInflater inflater  ViewGroup container                               Bundle savedInstanceState        View view   inflater inflate R layout fragment map list  container  false           init       mapFragment    SupportMapFragment getChildFragmentManager   findFragmentById R id map          don t recreate fragment everytime ensure last map location state are maintain     if  mapFragment    null            mapFragment   SupportMapFragment newInstance            mapFragment getMapAsync this             FragmentTransaction transaction   getChildFragmentManager   beginTransaction           R id map is a layout     transaction replace R id map  mapFragment  commit         return view

If you will use only Vidar Wahlberg answer  you get error when you open other activity  for example  and back to map  Or in my case open other activity and then from new activity open map again  without use back button   But when you combine Vidar Wahlberg solution and Matt solution you will have not exceptions   layout   lt com example ui layout MapWrapperLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android  android layout width  fill parent  android layout height  fill parent  android id    id map relative layout  gt        lt RelativeLayout         android layout width  fill parent          android layout height  fill parent          android id    id root  gt            lt fragment xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android              android id    id map              android layout width  match parent              android layout height  match parent              class  com google android gms maps SupportMapFragment    gt       lt  RelativeLayout gt   lt   lt com example ui layout MapWrapperLayout gt    Fragment   Override public View onCreateView LayoutInflater inflater  ViewGroup container  Bundle savedInstanceState        setHasOptionsMenu true       if  view    null            ViewGroup parent    ViewGroup  view getParent            if  parent    null               parent removeView view                       try           view   inflater inflate R layout map view  null           if view  null               ViewGroup root    ViewGroup  view findViewById R id root         Override public void onDestroyView         super onDestroyView        Fragment fragment   this getSherlockActivity   getSupportFragmentManager   findFragmentById R id map       if  fragment    null          getFragmentManager   beginTransaction   remove fragment  commit

The problem is that what you are trying to do shouldn t be done  You shouldn t be inflating fragments inside other fragments  From Android s documentation      Note  You cannot inflate a layout into a fragment when that layout   includes a  lt fragment gt   Nested fragments are only supported when added   to a fragment dynamically    While you may be able to accomplish the task with the hacks presented here  I highly suggest you don t do it  Its impossible to be sure that these hacks will handle what each new Android OS does when you try to inflate a layout for a fragment containing another fragment    The only Android-supported way to add a fragment to another fragment is via a transaction from the child fragment manager   Simply change your XML layout into an empty container  add an ID if needed      lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt LinearLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android id    id mapFragmentContainer      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent      android orientation  vertical   gt   lt  LinearLayout gt    Then in the Fragment onViewCreated View view   Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState  method    Override public void onViewCreated View view   Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState        super onViewCreated view  savedInstanceState       FragmentManager fm   getChildFragmentManager        SupportMapFragment mapFragment    SupportMapFragment  fm findFragmentByTag  mapFragment        if  mapFragment    null            mapFragment   new SupportMapFragment            FragmentTransaction ft   fm beginTransaction            ft add R id mapFragmentContainer  mapFragment   mapFragment            ft commit            fm executePendingTransactions              mapFragment getMapAsync callback

For those who are still running into this issue  the best way to make sure you don t get this error with a Map in a Tab is to make the Fragment extend SupportMapFragment instead of nesting a SupportMapFragment inside the Fragment used for the Tab   I just got this working using a ViewPager with a FragmentPagerAdapter  with the SupportMapFragment in the third Tab   Here is the general structure  note there is no need to override the onCreateView   method  and there is no need to inflate any layout xml   public class MapTabFragment extends SupportMapFragment

I had the same issue and was able to resolve it by manually removing the MapFragment in the onDestroy   method of the Fragment class   Here is code that works and references the MapFragment by ID in the XML    Override public void onDestroyView         super onDestroyView        MapFragment f    MapFragment  getFragmentManager                                             findFragmentById R id map       if  f    null           getFragmentManager   beginTransaction   remove f  commit        If you don t remove the MapFragment manually  it will hang around so that it doesn t cost a lot of resources to recreate show the map view again  It seems that keeping the underlying MapView is great for switching back and forth between tabs  but when used in fragments this behavior causes a duplicate MapView to be created upon each new MapFragment with the same ID   The solution is to manually remove the MapFragment and thus recreate the underlying map each time the fragment is inflated   I also noted this in another answer  1

I would recommend replace   rather than attach   detach   in your tab handling   Or  switch to ViewPager  Here is a sample project showing a ViewPager  with tabs  hosting 10 maps
