Well, I am developing an app and an api 8 app with TabActivity, but today I found out that "this class is deprecated."
In Android, "obsolete" usually means "we will continue to support this as long as we can, but there are better options that you should consider." In the case of TabActivity, the long-term plan is for the tabs to be in the action bar, which you can use on Android 3.x and higher, and on Android 2.x, down, using something like ActionBarSherlock .
So now we have to use FragmentActivity to implement tabs?
Not necessary, although this is certainly an option.
but what about when I want to show a listview with activity? I am using ListFragment (but this is "C: API Level 11")
ListFragment also available in the Android Support Package, where you get the FragmentActivity .
AsyncTaskLoader api11 only?
AsyncTaskLoader also available in the Android Support Package.
It would be great if someone could provide me with good and clear concepts about these problems, tabs, fragments and any other useful advice.
This will cover a couple of hundred pages in books. You may consider additional issues where you are more specific.
