Check orientation on Android phone

Question

How can I check if the Android phone is in Landscape or Portrait?

Answer 1

i think using getRotationv() doesn't help because http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Display.html#getRotation%28%29 getRotation() Returns the rotation of the screen from its "natural" orientation.

so unless you know the "natural" orientation, rotation is meaningless.

i found an easier way,

  Display display = ((WindowManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay();
  Point size = new Point();
  display.getSize(size);
  int width = size.x;
  int height = size.y;
  if(width>height)
    // its landscape

please tell me if there is a problem with this someone?
