Consider the sample app from developers.android.com
This describes using Fragments like so:
Ah, found it here
public class MainMenuHolder extends FragmentActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// If not already added to the Fragment manager add it. If you don't do this a new Fragment will be added every time this method is called (Such as on orientation change)
if(savedInstanceState == null)
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(android.R.id.content, new MainMenuFragment()).commit();
}
}
FragmentActivity allow's you to set the Fragment as the content of android.R.id.content which I assume is the android internal ID of the trunk view.
With this method you still end up with an mostly redundant activity (If all you want is the Fragment acting as the Activity). But still, half as much fluff as having an activity and an XML file acting as a container.
Any other answers would be appreciated!
