Hi Mark, But what if I currently have 3 activities in the stack and on the 3rd activity I have a menu item saying "Exit application" and with that I want to return to home screen. I want to remove all 3 activities at once and doesn't want android to store previous states when application is launched again.
Thanks in advance, Vaibhav Gathibandhe On Sep 29, 10:17 am, Mark Murphy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Rio Astamal wrote: > > thanks scorpio but that is not what i want to do... > > > I want to close app as end user not as developer... > > Android is designed so that applications do not need to be closed. > > If a developer wants to allow users to close their application, they > need to provide a close button or menu or something, which calls finish(). > > > e.g: I open browser to browse the internet, then after I finish browsing > > I want to close that browser. > > Why? > > It won't save you memory, as Android will quietly close down the browser > when it needs RAM and will restore the browser to the previous state > when you launch it again. > > -- > Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy)http://commonsware.com > > Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, > 2009http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
