public class LocalActivityManager
extends Object
java.lang.Object | |
↳ | android.app.LocalActivityManager |
This class was deprecated in API level 13.
Use the new Fragment
and FragmentManager
APIs instead; these are also available on older platforms through the Android compatibility package.
Helper class for managing multiple running embedded activities in the same process. This class is not normally used directly, but rather created for you as part of the ActivityGroup
implementation.

LocalActivityManager (Activity parent, boolean singleMode)
Create a new LocalActivityManager for holding activities running within the given parent.
Parameters | |
---|---|
parent |
Activity : the host of the embedded activities |
singleMode |
boolean : True if the LocalActivityManger should keep a maximum of one activity resumed |
Window destroyActivity (String id, boolean finish)
Destroy the activity associated with a particular id. This activity will go through the normal lifecycle events and fine onDestroy(), and then the id removed from the group.
Parameters | |
---|---|
id |
String : Unique identifier of the activity to be destroyed |
finish |
boolean : If true, this activity will be finished, so its id and all state are removed from the group. |
Returns | |
---|---|
Window |
Returns the window that was used to display the activity, or null if there was none. |
void dispatchCreate (Bundle state)
Restore a state that was previously returned by saveInstanceState()
. This adds to the activity group information about all activity IDs that had previously been saved, even if they have not been started yet, so if the user later navigates to them the correct state will be restored.
Note: This does not change the current running activity, or start whatever activity was previously running when the state was saved. That is up to the client to do, in whatever way it thinks is best.
Parameters | |
---|---|
state |
Bundle : a previously saved state; does nothing if this is null |
See also:
void dispatchDestroy (boolean finishing)
Called by the container activity in its onDestroy()
so that LocalActivityManager can perform the corresponding action on the activities it holds.
Parameters | |
---|---|
finishing |
boolean
|
See also:
void dispatchPause (boolean finishing)
Called by the container activity in its onPause()
so that LocalActivityManager can perform the corresponding action on the activities it holds.
Parameters | |
---|---|
finishing |
boolean : set to true if the parent activity has been finished; this can be determined by calling Activity.isFinishing() |
See also:
void dispatchResume ()
Called by the container activity in its onResume()
so that LocalActivityManager can perform the corresponding action on the activities it holds.
See also:
void dispatchStop ()
Called by the container activity in its onStop()
so that LocalActivityManager can perform the corresponding action on the activities it holds.
See also:
Activity getActivity (String id)
Return the Activity object associated with a string ID.
Parameters | |
---|---|
id |
String
|
Returns | |
---|---|
Activity |
the associated Activity object, or null if the id is unknown or its activity is not currently instantiated |
See also:
Activity getCurrentActivity ()
Retrieve the Activity that is currently running.
Returns | |
---|---|
Activity |
the currently running (resumed) Activity, or null if there is not one |
See also:
String getCurrentId ()
Retrieve the ID of the activity that is currently running.
Returns | |
---|---|
String |
the ID of the currently running (resumed) Activity, or null if there is not one |
void removeAllActivities ()
Remove all activities from this LocalActivityManager, performing an onDestroy()
on any that are currently instantiated.
Bundle saveInstanceState ()
Retrieve the state of all activities known by the group. For activities that have previously run and are now stopped or finished, the last saved state is used. For the current running activity, its onSaveInstanceState(Bundle)
is called to retrieve its current state.
Returns | |
---|---|
Bundle |
a Bundle holding the newly created state of all known activities |
See also:
Window startActivity (String id, Intent intent)
Start a new activity running in the group. Every activity you start must have a unique string ID associated with it -- this is used to keep track of the activity, so that if you later call startActivity() again on it the same activity object will be retained.
When there had previously been an activity started under this id, it may either be destroyed and a new one started, or the current one re-used, based on these conditions, in order:
FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP
flag set, then the current activity will remain running and its Activity.onNewIntent()
method called. FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP
set, then the current activity will remain running as-is. If the given Intent can not be resolved to an available Activity, this method throws ActivityNotFoundException
.
Warning: There is an issue where, if the Intent does not include an explicit component, we can restore the state for a different activity class than was previously running when the state was saved (if the set of available activities changes between those points).
Parameters | |
---|---|
id |
String : Unique identifier of the activity to be started |
intent |
Intent : The Intent describing the activity to be started |
Returns | |
---|---|
Window |
Returns the window of the activity. The caller needs to take care of adding this window to a view hierarchy, and likewise dealing with removing the old window if the activity has changed. |
Throws | |
---|---|
ActivityNotFoundException |
