I'm trying to update the time in a TextView with a Runnable supposed to be run every second. The Runnable is started from a Fragment's onCreateView(), but it's only executed once.

Anybody can help?

Thanks

public class MyFragment extends Fragment {

    Calendar mCalendar;

    private Runnable mTicker;
    private Handler mHandler;

    TextView mClock;

    String mFormat;

    private boolean mClockStopped = false;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        RelativeLayout view = (RelativeLayout) inflater.inflate(R.layout.meteo_widget, container, false);

        /*
         * Clock (from DigitalClock widget source)
         */

        mClock = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.clock);

        mCalendar = Calendar.getInstance();

        mHandler = new Handler();

        mTicker = new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                if(mClockStopped) return;
                mCalendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
                mClock.setText(DateFormat.format("hh:mm:ss", mCalendar));
                mClock.invalidate();
                long now = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
                long next = now + (1000 - now % 1000);
                mHandler.postAtTime(mTicker, next);
            }
        };
        mTicker.run();

        return view;
    }

    @Override
    public void onResume()
    {
        super.onResume();
        mClockStopped = true; 
    }

    @Override
    public void onPause()
    {
        mClockStopped = false;        
        super.onPause();
    }

}
