My app listens for orientation events through the navigator to handle portrait to landscape changes for which I update the buffer dimensions.  I listen for NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION_CHECK and NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION.

Do I also need to listen for ORIENTATION_INFO through orientation.h?   Isn't this redundant given what I do above?

Can you provide use-cases for listening to either or both of these events?

Thanks,

Check this example https://github.com/blackberry/NDK-Samples/blob/master/GoodCitizen/main.c

It handles orrientation change events in proper way.

We are having problems with:

    case NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION_CHECK:

        //Signal navigator that we intend to resize

        flag = IsLandscape(event);

        navigator_orientation_check_response(event, flag);

        break;

    case NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION:

        printf("we should not receive this event when not landscape");

We are responding with check_response (event, flag)  where flag is true if we are in landscape orientation.  We are seeing that sometimes we are getting NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION despite having sent check_response(event, false)...

If we do some processing in NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION, sometimes we are not receiving the NAVIGATOR_ORIENTATION_CHECK future events at all.  There seems to be a jira ticket:  tablet-362 that describes this issue...   But that was for sdk1.x

Any ideas?
