    <p><a href="https://review.source.android.com/#change,22355" rel="noreferrer" title="here">Here</a>, Dianne says that the old methods of retaining objects via <code>onRetainNonConfigurationInstance()</code> are now made obsolete by the fact that you can retain Fragment instances over configuration changes.</p> <p>And <a href="http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/FragmentRetainInstance.html" rel="noreferrer" title="here">here</a>, in the API Demos for fragments, it shows how to use this method for maintaining threads after a configuration change.</p> <p>I see that during a configuration change, when the Fragment might not be attached to any activity and the thread is done doing it's work, it's able to call <code>wait()</code> so that it doesn't try to deliver results while an Activity isn't attached. I find this very useful, and a great way to mitigate one of the more pain-in-the-butt problems with Android orientation changes.</p> <p>However, if you're using a threaded library (an API library that uses a thread executor, for example), where you don't have access to <code>wait()</code> on said threads, how could we use this new feature to our advantage?</p> <p>How can we ensure that messages won't be delivered while an activity is not attached?</p> <p>I've been thinking of a way to maybe queue up messages and delivery them when a new Activity is attached, but I wanted to hit up you guys and see if you've already come up with some solutions.</p> <p>Also, note, I've looked into the LoaderManager API, and it seems like it would be good for data that needs to be loaded when an Activity is shown, but not for something event based, like logging in via a button, etc.</p>

    1. COWhy is a Loader not suitable for a login process? Basically, anything can be executed in an ASyncTask, and be packed into a Loader. The LoaderCallbacks interface can be used for getting notified when the task is finished. Assuming you want to start another Activity when logging in has finished, putting the Activity start into onLoadFinished() should work just fine, no? Please elaborate more on this, if not.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
