In the exercise "
Communication between Fragments in ViewPager" demonstrate how to pass data from Fragment A to Fragment B in a ViewPager. It's assumed that Fragment B is created when data is passed, and keep alive.
It's a case that the target Fragment haven't been created when data is passed, java.lang.NullPointerException will be thrown. And also another case the target Fragment have been destroyed after data passed.
So it's modified to keep buffer (saveToB and saveToC) in main activity (AndroidViewPagerActivity.java) to hold the data passed. In Fragment B and C, check any data exist in onResume() call-back method.
