I am struggling with a quite rare problem.
Here it goes: I have a SurfaceView and there is a JNI-side thread that handling the rendering operations on it (Let say Render-thread). For "some" reason I need to rotate my drawings by myself inside the render-thread. To achieve this, the render thread queries the rotation status from the android framework. And I can see the rotated screen whenever the device is rotated, but there is a problem: if I rotate the device, the screen rendered by Render-Thread is rotated, but Android UIs (such as notification bar, toast message, etc) are not rotated (Of course!). To resolve this problem, I use setRequestedOrientation function to tell the Android to rotate my Activity. Then I can also see the properly rotated Android UIs. At this moment, my real problem happens: The race between Render-Thread and Android's screen rotation stuff (I guess surface flinger?). Apparently, if I call setRequestedOrientation function, Android framework rotates the screen byitself, while my Render-thread is also drawing the rotated screen. And this results in a glitch. My question here is that: Is there a way to tell Android not to rotate the SurfaceView while I'm still calling setRequestedOrientation? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
