Does this imply that EVERY RemoteViews update that I apply to my widget should be capable of COMPLETELY initializing the correct current state of every component on the widget?
Right now I am sending more frequent minor updates (that don't include re-setting button listeners, button images, etc), and have attempted to only do a full "refresh" on orientation changes, but the sequence of the ACTION_CONFIGURATION_CHANGED event and the widget UI inflation and layout does not seem to support sending a "full refresh" RemoteViews update at the time of that event. I send a RemoteViews update that resets the button listeners, but it appears that the "cached" RemoteViews is being used instead and my update is lost (or at least, applied to the previous widget on the old orientation). The effect is, after an orientation change my ImageButtons don't work and they don't reflect any updates to their images. So, in order to guarantee preserving widget state on orientation changes, should every RemoteViews update completely reset the state of all widget components? Or am I missing something here?
