[android-developers] Target activity Launchmode - singleTask
Hi, The scenario is, my application constructs an intent and uses startActivityForResult() to launch target activity from third-party- application, Sometimes Third party applications declare the target activity's launch-mode as singleTask, due to this setting, my application receives cancel-result as per documentation, but user can see the target activity and select an item(which is supposed to be returned and utilised in my application). When user press back-button, my activity/application wont get any data, as it has already received cancel-result, due to singleTask launchmode of target activity. At this point user feels, that my application is not processing the data passed from target activity (I feel its pretty bad user experience). Is there any API/work around to know the target Activites lauchnmode, so that I can avoid calling target actitvity and display an error message to user. Is there any flag/configuration that overrides target activity's launchmode ie singeltask?

Re: [android-developers] Target activity Launchmode - singleTask

You may need to write your own chooser (if you use it) and then use PackageManager to find that out and filter out apps that you do not want user to call. Alternatively, depending on what apps you call for results, I believe it might be also suitable to check for presence of certain packages on user device and warn him about described problem in advance. Is there any flag/configuration that overrides target activity's launchmode ie singeltask? Don't think so regular app could do that.
