Ok, I know pointers don't exist in Java, but I was wondering if there is a way to mimic its behavior or any other mechanism that let me keep the reference to an object when my activity restart from a softkill.
inside the onCreate of my activity I have something like that: work= new workThread(....); this class workThread is not really a thread but its contructor instanciate a real thread, and everything works fine, till I change the orientation or leave my app. the original workThread is still running in background all the time to keep a socket opened. when I go back to the app the onCreate instanciate a whole new workThread object and when it runs it throws an exception becouse the socket is already opened. I know how to use the onSaveInstanceStatus and the Bundle at onCreate to restore non View variables. But, as far I know, I only can do this for basic types like int, String, etc. What I need to keep is the reference to the original "work" object created on the very first onCreate. There is a way to do that? Thanks a lot for any help -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
