How can i make a dynamic flipping screen(like that of iPhone) in Android

Question

I am parsing data through the web service. I want the flipping horizontally rather than vertically. Here is a tutorial where ViewFlipper is used but it is for static data.

You can add pages to a ViewFlipper dynamically using addView.

  flipper= (ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.flipper1);
  flipper.addView(myView,myViewIndex);

Where myView is the view you wish to add, and myViewIndex is the index in the viewflipper you want to add this new view.

You can then set the animations to preform on changing of views:

  flipper.setInAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.left_in));
  flipper.setOutAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.left_out));

Then to flip to this page you can use:

  flipper.setDisplayedChild(myViewIndex);

Where left_in.xml is defined as

and left_out.xml is:
