I have an activity that runs asynctasks among other things, I don't want everything to be reset when the layout changes.
I put this in the activity's manifest element android:configChanges="orientation"
but unfortunately the activity doesn't even switch from the landscape to portrait layout anymore when that is there!
I only halfway understand saveInstanceStates and passing Bundles around, and I'm definitely not sure how to use that with complex data objects, insight appreciated there
What I would like to do is make sure that the asynctasks don't run again, (I could save variables to disk, and do a conditional check for them before running the asynctask) if there is some android way to really watch out for this that would be great!
thanks
