Another question:
android:screenOrientation="portrait" locks the screen orientation,
that's fine.
But it is possible to do the same in Activity source code ? (i.e.
removing the screenOrientation in AndroidManifest.xml).
I've tried the following code to keep the initial orientation but it
fails.
private int initialOrientation =
Configuration.ORIENTATION_UNDEFINED;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
initialOrientation = getResources().getConfiguration
().orientation;
...
}
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig)
{
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
setRequestedOrientation(initialOrientation);
}
I've also tried with:
initialOrientation = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;
initialOrientation = getRequestedOrientation();
initialOrientation = getWindow().getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay
().getOrientation();
Thanks for the help.
