activity with fragments refreshing on orientation change

Question

Before any one says this looks like a duplicate post .. let me explain a bit, i have search alot to find the solution to my problem but haven't found any solution that can cater my problem ..

i am using drawer layout with fragments and menu in drawer which changes the fragments on menu selection in activity..every fragment have 2 layout one for portrait in layout folder and one in layout-land folder.. when activity is first open it loads the first fragment by default in onCreate() on menu selection fragment is change but when origination is change is shows the first fragment again with landscape layout in layout-land folder which means activity is refreshed..

if i used android:configChanges="orientation with activity .. the problem persist if i uses android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize" then problem is resolved but landscape layout in layout-land is not shown instead shows the portrait layout in layout folder

Answer 1

I think you should use onConfigurationChanged in the Layout Activity class and write an if/else condition for the Orientations.

@override  
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig){
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);  
}
