How to detect orientation change in layout in Android?

Question

I just implemented a orientation change feature - e.g. when the layout changes from portrait to landscape (or vice versa). How can I detect when the orientation change event

Just wanted to show you a way to save all your Bundle after onConfigurationChanged:

Create new Bundle just after your class:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    Bundle newBundy = new Bundle();

Next, after "protected void onCreate" add this:

@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
     super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
     if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
            onSaveInstanceState(newBundy);
        } else if (newConfig.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT) {
            onSaveInstanceState(newBundy);
        }
}

@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
    super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
    outState.putBundle("newBundy", newBundy);
}

@Override
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
    savedInstanceState.getBundle("newBundy");
}

If you add this all your crated classes into MainActivity will be saved.

But the best way is to add this in your AndroidManifest:
