Hmmm...
Then I suggest that you do something like this
Have the same Activity class but create 2 different classes that
behaves differently for portrait and landscape that implements a
common interface. And do something like this.
public interface ActivityDelegator {
// Put methods here that you need. I would suggest similar
lifecyle methods in the activity.
void onCreate(Bundle bundle);
void onDestroy();
...
}
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
....
private ActivityDelegator mDelegator;
...
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstance) {
super.onCreate(savedInstance);
boolean isLandscape =
getResources().getConfiguration().orientation ==
Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE;
if (isLandscape) {
mDelegator = new LandscapeDelegator(this); // should
probably pass in this activity since you would need to use the
context.
} else {
mDelegator = new PortraitDelegator(this);
}
mDelegator.onCreate(savedInstance);
}
...
}
I am sure you know what to do from here :)
I have not investigated a better way to do this yet. But it be
sufficient to handle your requirement.
