I am developing an android application. So in there I have button called "Aboutus". when I click that one it starts another activity and show corresponding view.
Here is the code for button Aboutus click event.
aboutus.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,AboutUs.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
And then in that aboutus activity I have back button.when we press that back button it will go to the main activity again. back button key event goes like this..
back.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent intent = new Intent(AboutUs.this,MainActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("aboutus", true);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
System.exit(0);
}
});
here i put some intent extras for some other purposes.In this case they do not matter. So and then again in mainactivity i have exit button. which should kill whole app.
and my exit button code goes like this.
exit.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
finish();
System.exit(0);
}
});
Exit button works perfectly (it ends the app) except for one scenario. if we click on aboutus and go to that activity and then press back button on that aboutus activity and then again come back to main activity and finally when i want to exit it won't kill whole app, instead it again goes to the about activity.
in conclusion, MainActivity---> click aboutus button(no problem in here.this will start aboutus activity)
Aboutus----->click back button(this also works fine. go back to main activity)
MainActivity--> Exit button (not working .it goes to aboutus activity again)
So how to fix this problem?
use intent flag ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP to clear all activities on top of it:
Intent intent = new Intent(AboutUs.this,MainActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("aboutus", true);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP)
startActivity(intent);
FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP From the doc:
If set, and the activity being launched is already running in the current task, then instead of launching a new instance of that activity, all of the other activities on top of it will be closed and this Intent will be delivered to the (now on top) old activity as a new Intent.
