I agree with you, tauntz. Maybe it won't last 'seconds' with the activity approach to switch (with further investigation: the API demo needs 1 sec. cause of the large amount of list items, i think).... but there is a remarkable delay by simply switching one LinearLayout to another. With setContentView(view) it happens really immediately with almost zero delay.
I have coded a side-by-side demo, which i'll post. Just need to implement a realistic timer. The differences are evident, I think. I think, the Activity/Intent- Pattern is a real intelligent thing, but it is rather heavy-weight. As I've said, both classes Intent and Activity contain about 3000-4000 lines of code... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
