And fragments are a pain, you should use screens and views

[radityagumay]

advise me, if i am wrong

[radityagumay]

🙂

[mkodekar]

Tell me about fragment lifecycle

[mkodekar]

How many methods

[radityagumay]

i see, much override functions

[radityagumay]

just take a look the code

[radityagumay]

the screen itself just a custom view

[radityagumay]

i also implements this kind

[radityagumay]

so, did you not use a fragment

[mkodekar]

See there are lesser in views and screens

[mkodekar]

And then there is less code and savedinstance state to be lost.

[radityagumay]

how you avoid configuration changes?

[mkodekar]

There is onSave and on restore for that

[mkodekar]

Which handles it

[mkodekar]

And view does not changes it state when rotated

[mkodekar]

Or does it.

[mkodekar]

And there is not configuration changed method for views and screens

[radityagumay]

it will changes, all you view or screen just implemented in activty

[radityagumay]

did you use kind MVP for this?

[mkodekar]

It won't try it

[mkodekar]

Yes its mvp

[radityagumay]

i see

@mkodekar why do you say fragments are a pain. I've been using them successfully in fairly large projects without any "pain".

IMHO, once you understand them, they are a real pleasure to use.
Fragments have a lot of lifecycle events, yes. But you should only care about the ones that you need. Just like activities.

I agree there might be some rather good cons. But I fail to see any from your comments

[radityagumay]

Actually I use fragment for all my project, and that really good.

[mkodekar]

I don't have any major issues with fragments as well but sometimes building complex ui with fragments becomes a pain, secondly the screen and view architecture certainly is a good alternative for me to do such type of stuffs.
