Android, how to disable the 'wipe' effect when starting a new activity?

In my application, how do I disable the transition animation that shows the new activity layout enter from the right and the old one exit to left?

CaseyB response is good we can set an animation

getWindow().setWindowAnimations(int);

but since Android SDK 2.0 you will use overridePendingTransition(), to change the transition animation, this is an example loading my App from the SplashScreen.

      @Override
      public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
              super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
              setContentView(R.layout.SplashScreen);

              new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                      @Override
                      public void run() {
                              Intent mainIntent = new Intent(SplashScreen.this,     AndroidNews.class);
                              SplashScreen.this.startActivity(mainIntent);
                              SplashScreen.this.finish();

                              overridePendingTransition(R.anim.mainfadein,
                                      R.anim.splashfadeout);
                      }
              }, 3000);
      }

}
