My application creates a ZoomButtonsController during Activity.onCreate(). To make the controls visible, I call ZoomButtonsController.setVisible(true) in Activity.onTouch(). However when I exit my application, I get an exception (see below) indicating a "leaked IntentReceiver", and suggests that I must call unregisterReceiver(). Why is this? How is a ZoomButtonsController related to an IntentReceiver? How do I unregister it? The javadoc for ZoomButtonsController does not mention this. Can someone please refer me to an example showing how to create and destroy a ZoomButtonsController?
Thanks, Tom E/ActivityThread( 7613): Activity com.tomoreilly.astronomy.FreeSolaris has leaked IntentReceiver android.widget.ZoomButtonsController $...@4602e948 that was originally registered here. Are you missing a call to unregisterReceiver()?
