I've got a Fragment whose onCreateView() callback returns a custom View. The View contains a GridView that I'd like to set an adapter on. Before I switched to using Fragments, I would simply find the GridView by Id and then set the adapter. For reasons I don't currently understand, the GridView is null when I try finding it by Id in my FragmentsActivity.

So, I'd like to set the adapter in the fragment itself. I'm assuming I need to do this in onActivityCreated, but I don't know how I'll set the adapter on the GridView that's contained within the View being returned by onCreateView. In other words, how do I grab hold of that View that's returned by onCreateView to set the Adapter on it?

EDIT - I just realized, I could probably just find the GridView in onActivityCreated and set the adapter there, no?

I know this answer comes a little late (and also I am quite new to Android). But what about using getView() inside of onActivityCreated, instead of finding it by ID?

You created the GridView in the fragment in onCreateView(). Just hold onto it in a data member of the fragment.
