UnifiedPreference

=================

UnifiedPreference is a library for working with all versions of the 

Android Preference package from API v4 and up.

Features

========

 * Easy to use

 * Takes care of most of the boilerplate code

 * Tiny, only ~5k!

 * Use a single pane for phones, or headers and fragments for tablets

 * Binds preference values to summaries according to Android Design 

   Guidelines

 * Translated to 50 locales (imported from AOSP internal strings)

 * Uses ActionBarSherlock (optional)

How to Use

==========

 1. Ensure your project has one preference xml file for each desired header

 2. Create or modify a header xml file *using your project's own namespace*

    for header attributes. Be sure to define preferenceRes for each.

	```xml

	

		

	

	```

 3. Subclass UnifiedPreferenceActivity (or UnifiedSherlockPreferenceActivity

    for ABS). Call setHeaderRes before super.onCreate and subclass the fragments here.

	```java

	public class SampleActivity extends UnifiedPreferenceActivity {

		@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

			setHeaderRes(R.xml.pref_headers);

			super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

		}

		public static class SampleFragment extends UnifiedPreferenceFragment {}

	```

Thats it! See the demo project for a more in depth example of how to use the library.

FAQ

===

When is a two-pane layout used?

 > When com.android.internal.R.bool.preferences_prefer_dual_pane evaluates to true. In AOSP this is true for sw720dp

   but this may vary by OEM or third party ROM.
