I wanted to know if it is possible to lock the orientation of an activity 
at runtime.  

I know it is possible:

   1. To restrict a particular activity to portrait or landscape by means 
   of the manifest file. 
   2. For the user to restrict all activities to stay in the current 
   orientation by turning of Screen Rotation in their phone or tablet 
   settings. 
   
I wondered if it is possible to allow users to choose "Lock Orientation" 
inside my app, if they so choose, and then act in such a way to enforce it. 

If not possible, the next option might be simply to educate users about the 
global setting as an option. 

Nathan.
