How about having other activities in a shared library, from other developers?
I have a native thread and I have to work with the assets directly from the native code (it is really a port of a complete game). Loading the whole archive is pretty slow and I have to reload it each time I pause/resume - but let me explain the situation in more details. Let me list the issues I had encountered before, perhaps my solutions were far from ideal: 1. I figured out that the asset file is *lost* for the native code after a *real* pause/resume - both if I get the FD from java-code or fopen the file in C-code. So I have to close it on pause and reload on resume. It's annoying to wait for that reload in a situation when you don't really switch to another app, but just have another activity on top. I suspect that pausing just the activity won't cause any trouble like that (droppping the file). 2. Also I sometimes had a problem of the touch device being not able to detect touches - after several pause/resumes. As I got it, the issue was connected to the fact that the files were released only after resume and not on pause. Also, sometimes it seems you don't really get the app suspended even switching to another app, like when you adjust sound volume - will be cool to know when onPause is caused by a similar event - to try if it really causes the issues with the assets. As I remember it didn't crash in situations like that - it did only after a "real" app suspending. пятница, 3 июня 2011 г., 12:55:44 UTC+4 пользователь Zsolt Vasvari написал: > > Set a flag "iAmStartingMyNextActivity=true" before you call > startActivity and in onPause() check for the flag. > > If you create a base MyAppActivity which extends Activity and you > extend all your activities from MyAppActivity, you should be able to > do this without puttting any code into every one of your activities. > > > > On Jun 3, 4:24 pm, Dalvin <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi > > > > My question is can i get to know when the entire application gets > > paused/resumed start/stop etc. > > For example if i have 5 activities in my application.
