It will not be called if the process is terminated. It will be called late if you're running the Nexus One. > 2. How much of a big deal is it if that single database connection is > not closed? I mean, won't the process get killed anyway...? I would think you get incrementally better data integrity by properly closing the database. The process is not necessarily killed as part of a normal shutdown. The process may be recycled. I am uncertain if the VM itself is also recycled. If it is, you may introduce a memory leak as well. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Training: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
