Hi Mark, Thanks for the reply. You are right , I could have used onResume in my secondary(not root activity) activities, but onResume will be called even when I navigate between the activities in my app once it is launched. . I dont want to check the user token during this scenario as it would be a overkill.
My requirement is if my application( hint app task level) as a whole is brought to foreground ( see the two cases below) a) From the Home page - works fine in this scenario b) From the Recent Apps - has the issue , here i cant know the onResume for any secondary activity is called due to an internal navigation or due to the *app task* coming to the foreground again. So i thought of using the FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCHED_FROM_HISTORY<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#FLAG_ACTIVITY_LAUNCHED_FROM_HISTORY> from any of the secondary activity but I get 0 when I query for getFlags() in any of the secondary activity thanks And Uzer On Sat, Apr 30, 2011 at 7:54 PM, Mark Murphy <[email protected]>wrote: > On Sat, Apr 30, 2011 at 10:15 AM, Manohar Mahapatra > <[email protected]> wrote: > > My application is a client based financial app and compulsorily it needs > to > > validate the user token from the server every time it comes to > foreground. > > This is a security mandate. > > Then validate the user token in every activity in onResume().
