Android HorizontalPaging Sample
===================================

This sample shows how to implement tabs, using Fragments and a ViewPager.

Introduction
------------

This sample implements tabs using the deprecated [ActionBar.TabListener][1]. It uses [ViewPager][2] and
[FragmentPagerAdapter][3] to handle swiping between tabs and displaying the selected tab content.


1. Create an Activity that extends [FragmentActivity][4], with a [ViewPager][2] for its layout.
2. Implement [ActionBar.TabListener][1] interface.
3. Create a class that extends [FragmentPagerAdapter][3] and override its `getItem(int position)`,
`getCount()` and `getPageTitle(int position)` methods.
4. In the `onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)` method of your activity, set navigation mode to tabs for the
ActionBar using `setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS)`. Note: This is DEPRECATED as of Android
Lollipop.
5. Set your custom [FragmentPagerAdapter][3] on your [ViewPager][2].
6. Implement `setOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.SimpleOnPageChangeListener())` on your [ViewPager][2] to
know the selected tab, so you can update your ActionBar with `setSelectedNavigationItem(position)`.
