I have a service that runs in the background periodically and checks a database for some data. If it finds whats it's looking for, it shows an Activity to the user to alert him/her of this condition. Next time it runs, if the condition still persists I only want to show the activity if it is not already on display. So I need to detect if the activity is still on display from the last time before deciding to show it again. The alert activity is in the same app as the service.
How can I reliably detect that the activity is on display? (I could track this by setting a global and unsetting it when the activity is destroyed (?) but I dont feel that's going to be reliable. I'd much rather find out definitively from Android whether the activity is showing or not.)
