I'm trying to implement a MenuBar (i need it always visible so the context menu is not useful !) in the bottom of every activity for my app. I saw that the easy to use TabActivity is now deprecated...and so i didn't get yet ho should i use the Fragments "technology". I already found some discussion...but there is any already implemented eclipse project i could download somewhere or any easy to follow tutorial? The one i followed over here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/TabActivity.html was really incomplete. I get some class cast exception due the fact i didn't get how to use FragmentActivities. Help! :)

Try running ApiDemos app shipped with SDK Samples.

  • mTabManager.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("simple").setIndicator("Simple"), FragmentStackSupport.CountingFragment.class, null); mTabManager.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("contacts").setIndicator("Contacts"), LoaderCursorSupport.CursorLoaderListFragment.class, null); mTabManager.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("custom").setIndicator("Custom"), LoaderCustomSupport.AppListFragment.class, null); – Lorenzo Sciuto Jan 30 '12 at 11:24
