Creater a abstract class MyAbsYWeatherFragment extends Fragment, all our fragments will extend it. All it's sub-class have to override init_country() method to provide the target city of Yahoo Weather, a string of ACTION_RESPONSE for IntentFilter, and boolean retainInst to determine is it need retain instance. It will start our IntentService and handle all job for our fragments.

Create three sub-class of MyAbsYWeatherFragment, Fragment1, Fragment2 and Fragment3. They are the actual fragments in the layout.
Fragment1.java
package com.example.androidyahooweatherdom;
public class Fragment1 extends MyAbsYWeatherFragment {
@Override
void init_country() {
//New York
woeid = "2459115";
ACTION_RESPONSE = "androidyahooweatherdom.RESPONSE.NewYork";
retainInst = false;
}
}
Fragment2.java
package com.example.androidyahooweatherdom;
public class Fragment2 extends MyAbsYWeatherFragment {
@Override
void init_country() {
//New York
woeid = "2459115";
ACTION_RESPONSE = "androidyahooweatherdom.RESPONSE.NewYork";
retainInst = true;
}
}
Fragment3.java
package com.example.androidyahooweatherdom;
public class Fragment3 extends MyAbsYWeatherFragment {
@Override
void init_country() {
//London
woeid = "23416974";
ACTION_RESPONSE = "androidyahooweatherdom.RESPONSE.London";
retainInst = true;
}
}
Modify /res/layout/activity_main.xml and /res/layout-land/activity_main.xml to add the three fragments in normal and landscape orientation.
/res/layout/activity_main.xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:id="@+id/fragment3"
android:layout_width="0px"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
MainActivity
package com.example.androidyahooweatherdom;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
}
- Fragment1 call setRetainInstance(flase), so everytime orientation changed, it will re-start and reload new weather.
- Fragment3 call setRetainInstance(true), so it will not reload weather.
- Fragment2 call setRetainInstance(true), it will not reload weather too. But it have the same Action string for IntentFilter of Fragment1, so when IntentService of Fragment1 finished, BroadcastReceiver of Fragment2 will be called also.
