Deletion of a subset of the residence list is facilitated by the introducion of a contextual actionbar. This is created by a long press on any of the list items intended for removal. The contextual action bar contains a menu icon (trashcan) which when clicked on completes the deletion process. A suitable Android interface is implemented to facilitate the various actions.

In order to support 'swipe' between views at a specific level, we incorporate ViewPager support into the class.

We introduce a facility to select and delete a subset of residences in the list view. The selected items need not be contiguous. The Android MultiChoiceModeListener interface is key to the implementation of this feature.

Here we incorporate a new feature to support horizontal 'swipe' interaction. This allows a user to page through the entire residence list, beginning from within any details view, in either direction. In providing this feature, we make of the Android ViewPager layout manager PageAdapter abstract class.
