[FIXED] How to disable back button pressed in android fragment class

Issue

I want to disable the back button in a fragment class. onBackPressed() doesn't seem to work in this fragment. How could I disable the back button?

This is my sample code:

public class Login extends Fragment {
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
       ,Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        ViewGroup root = (ViewGroup) inflater.inflate(R.layout.login, null);
        return root;
    }

    public void onBackPressed() {
    }
}

Solution

You have to override onBackPressed of parent FragmentActivity class. Therefore, put your codes in parent FragmentActivity. Or you can call parent's method by using this:

public void callParentMethod(){
    getActivity().onBackPressed();
}

in FragmentActivity override onBackPressed Method and not call its super class to disable back button.

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
  //super.onBackPressed();
  //create a dialog to ask yes no question whether or not the user wants to exit
  ...
}
