public class AndroidSlidingDrawerActivity extends Activity {

   /** Called when the activity is first created. */
   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      
       LinearLayout mainLayout = new LinearLayout(this);
       LayoutParams mainLayoutParams

          Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
       SlidingDrawer mySlidingDrawer
        = (SlidingDrawer)inflater.inflate(
          R.layout.horizontalslidingdrawer,
          mainLayout, false);
       mainLayout.addView(mySlidingDrawer);
      
       setContentView(mainLayout);
