DialogFragment callback on orientation change

Question

I\'m migrating my dialogs, currently using Activity.showDialog(DIALOG_ID);, to use the DialogFragment system as discussed in the android reference.

Answer 1

While André's solution works, a better solution is to get the updated activity during onAttach() in your Fragment.

private DialogTestListener mListener;

@Override
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
    super.onAttach(activity);
    mListener = (DialogTestListener) activity;
}

With this solution, you won't need to pass the Activity in newInstance() anymore. You just need to make sure the Activity owning your Fragment is a DialogTestListener. You also don't need to save the state like in the ResultReceiver solution.
