+<p>To switch between views within an application, you can use <xref href="jar:GUID-759FBC7F-5384-4487-8457-A8D4B76F6AA6.jar!/html/classCAknViewAppUi.html#65e2d009edf0f2f2678ff88788907683" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>CAknViewAppUI::ActivateLocalViewL()</parmname></xref>.</p>
+<p>An example implementation of switching between views in an application
+as a result of <xref href="GUID-4941C035-C359-4968-9BD5-31F44EE5F810.dita">command
+handling</xref> is as follows:</p>
+<codeblock id="GUID-4CC3D27C-CB0B-4BF2-AFEB-13CC054D509A" xml:space="preserve">case EMyViewAppCmdView1Cmd1:
+ {
+ // Switch to view 2
+ AppUi()->ActivateLocalViewL(KView2Id);
+ break;</codeblock>
+<p>, where <parmname>KView2Id</parmname> is the UID for view 2 in the application,
+and is defined in another header filer in the application.</p>
+<p>A new view is activated first and the previous view is deactivated after
+that. This allows quick view switching to take place. When deactivating, all
+controls, including menus and dialogs, are also closed down.</p>
+<p>Each view may have its own menu system as defined in the <xref href="GUID-B238952B-1691-49F4-B8B9-9F755011A7DD.dita"><parmname>AVKON_VIEW</parmname> resource</xref> structure. However, if the menu system owned by the application
+is to be used, its contents must be updated for the new view prior to switching.</p>
+<p>An example implementation is as follows:</p>
+<codeblock id="GUID-508F9B8E-7C24-4E8B-91FA-F0E596B91A29" xml:space="preserve">// Switch to a new menu system for the new view.
+iEikonEnv->AppUiFactory()->MenuBar()->
+ SetMenuTitleResourceId(R_MY_VIEW_ARCH_APP_VIEW2_MENU);
+// Now switch the view to view 2
+iAvkonViewAppUi->ActivateLocalViewL(TUid::KView2Id);
+</codeblock>

+<section id="GUID-A8098599-D103-4DB6-B7BE-1E01AF10B88A"><title>Remote switching</title>
+<p>In remote view switching, an application initiates the remote target
+application to change its view. If the application is not running, it is started.</p>
+<p>In the application, call the <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/reference/reference-cpp/Control_Environment/CCoeAppUiClass.html#%3a%3aCCoeAppUi%3a%3aActivateViewL%28const%20TVwsViewId%20%26amp%3b%29" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>CCoeAppUi::ActivateViewL()</parmname></xref> function, giving <xref href="jar:GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44.jar!/sdk/doc_source/reference/reference-cpp/View_Server/TVwsViewIdClass.html" format="application/java-archive"><parmname>TVwsViewId</parmname></xref> containing the target application’s UID and the target view
+UID. </p>
+<p>Optionally, if the remote application view requires, give a message
+ID and the descriptor data, which the view needs for its initialization. The
+remote application view documentation publishes the required parameters.</p>
+<p>Note that the calling and target application are independent of each
+other. When the target application exits, it will not exit the calling application.
+Also, when the calling client exits after switching the remote view of the
+target application, it will not exit the target application.</p>
+<p>Remote view switching is a one-way request through the application framework
+from a calling application to a target application. The caller can send data,
+but the target application cannot pass data back through the framework. Of
+course, the calling application may pass a file path, which could be used
+for data exchange.</p>
