Because Dianne works for Google, she has to be a lot more professional because anything she says will probably subsequently be quoted. I'll put it this way: in all of the questions seen here, situations brought up by people, including all of the examples you have provided so far, there is *always* a better way, and this has *universally* been used by people who took a C programming course where they (also taking the cheap way out, doubly so in the presence of threads) were taught to do an exit(n) whenever they needed to just quit. They then saw the method, without fully understanding the Android lifecycle / system interaction, and transcribed that experience over to their new apps. This behavior goes in the bin with "people treating Android like Linux." > There's no doubt what the professional-opinion is in the episode when > the OFF button is outlawed... Of course, typically the off button these days is simply a "sleep" button.. and to get the real effect you have to pull out the battery :-)... kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
