--------------------------------
Summary: Add config setting for Android app launchMode
Key: CB-6048
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6048
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Android
Reporter: Michal Mocny
Assignee: Michal Mocny
As raised on mailing list: "[Android] Apps restart instead of resume when
brought to focus by clicking app icon"
"TLDR; AndroidManifest.xml <activity> needs: android:launchMode="singleTop" --
can I add it?
Quick search brings up:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10122449/phonegap-android-application-restarting-instead-of-resuming-although-it-was-not
..which advises to add android:launchMode="singleTask" to AndroidManifest.xml
<activity>, which does fix the issue.
According to the descriptions in
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html the
differences mostly stem in how the app handles intents, however, there is a
comment in the table of descriptions which labels singleTask launchMode as
"(not recommended for general use)".
On the other hand, singleTop mode *is* recommended, and also fixes the issue,
and according to the description, sounds to me like a much better default."
