Need guidance for my first Android application: how many activities should I use?
- by jul
Hi,
I'm starting Android doing an application for searching restaurants, and some guidance would be welcome!
On the first screen I'd like to have a search field with a submit button (I get the data from a web service), and below a list with the results of the search. When clicking on one of the items of the list it will show a screen with the restaurant details as well as a map showing its location. My questions are:
Can I do everything in one single activity or should I do an activity for the search, one for the result list, one for the restaurant description, and another for the map?
Would doing one single activity make the application more responsive?
How can I use a list and a map within a normal activity (without ListActivity and MapActivity)?
Any help, pointer, example application or sample code is very appreciated!
Thank you
Jul
