How can I switch orientation at runtime in Eclipse Emulator

Question

I have been doing testing with my android project, and I have built orientation change functionality into my app, but when I change the orientation in Eclipses emulator, it remains in portrait(or landscape depending on how it started).

EDIT**: The emulator itself rotates, but the APP doesnt.

And the public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration c) method is never called.

Yes I have put android:configChanges="orientation" in my manifest

I would prefer not to have to buy a phone for testing, so help would be graciously appreciated!

Answer 1

The Android Emulator orientation cannot be changed by orientation change events and therefore this question is closed.

Answer 3

Not sure about the runtime but try CTRL + F12.

Answer 4
