have an activity handling search (ACTIVITY_1), which works perfectly
when I use the search (via SEARCH button on the phone) within/from
this activity.
However, when I use search from another activity (ACTIVITY_2..x) by
implementing onNewIntent and forward the query string to my
Search_Activity.class (ACTIVITY_1) it always pauses ACTIVITY_2 first
and then goes to onCreate() of ACTIVITY_2.
@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
Log.i(TAG, "onNewIntent()");
if (Intent.ACTION_SEARCH.equals(intent.getAction())) {
Log.i(TAG, "===== Intent: ACTION_SEARCH =====");
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getBaseContext(),
Search_Activity.class);
myIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEARCH);
myIntent.putExtra(SearchManager.QUERY, intent.getStringExtra
(SearchManager.QUERY));
startActivity(myIntent);
}
}
* Why does it recreate my ACTIVITY_2 when it is already there and
doesn't go to onNewIntent directly?
* Is there another way I can forward search queries directly to
ACTIVITY_1? For example via a setting in the Manifest.xml
* Is it possible to generally forward all search queries
automatically to ACTIVITY_1 without even implementing onNewIntent in
all the other activities?
Currently I have to put an <intent-filter> in every single activity to
"activate" my custom search there and forward the query then to the
activity that handles search via the onNewIntent (as shown above).
<activity android:name=".Another_Activity"
android:theme="@style/MyTheme">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.app.searchable"
android:resource="@xml/searchable" />
</activity>
