Nope. Right now, for testing purposes, it is triggered through a button click.
I've also included android:name="AppObject" within the <application>- tag of the Manifest. And the initialization of the AppObject seems to work properly. The only thing that doesn't work is calling AppObject appObj = (AppObject)this.getApplication(); from an Activity that is not in the same package as the AppObject (which is in the "main" package). As soon as I move this Activity into the "main" package it works properly and (AppObject)this.getApplication(); returns the Application Object.
