Change layout direction when language changed

[emadimehrdad]

Hi, how can i change layout direction when a user changes his app's language

[JanuszHain]

if resources put in localized packages doesn't work, put strings in string xmls, different for each language, read and and depending on it change layout direction in code - quick shot, I guess it is doable

I'm using next code in BaseActivity class

    @Override
    public void setContentView(@LayoutRes int layoutResID) {
        super.setContentView(layoutResID);
        View v = findViewById(android.R.id.content);
        if(v!=null) {
            Locale locale = LanguageSetting.getLanguage(this);
            v.setLayoutDirection(TextUtils.getLayoutDirectionFromLocale(locale));
        }
    }
