title: How to get getIntent().getExtras() to work in a fragment, 'getIntent is undefined for the type'
body: <p>Hi i'm trying to change an activity to a fragment so i can add it to a swipe layout and i think i'm just about done (unless anyone can see any other errors in my code) but i cannot find a solution to my problem anywhere, it says that 'getIntent() is undefined for the type SoftwarePageFragment' I'm really new to this and have literally been coding in android to a week or so???</p>
