(Android) Custom view orientation change – restore state.

Here’s one pretty simple way to get your custom view to restore its current state after an orientation change:
You can of course put any values in there, for example if you need to restore fields.

(quickly plotted code. Haven’t run it, but it should work)

[java]
@Override
protected Parcelable onSaveInstanceState() {
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putParcelable("instanceState", super.onSaveInstanceState());
bundle.putString("myString", myEditText.getText().toString());
return bundle;
}

@Override
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Parcelable state) {
if (state instanceof Bundle) {
Bundle bundle = (Bundle) state;
myEditText.setText(bundle.getString("myString"));
state = bundle.getParcelable("instanceState");
}
super.onRestoreInstanceState(state);
}
[/java]
