I have the following
activity structure in my application
A simple "splash screen"
activity is started when the application is fired up (let's call it "Splash"). This
activity starts the main
activity when the user presses a button (I will call it "Main").
Main can in turn start two activities from the menu. The first
activity presents a simple form (let's call this one "Form"), the second is a MapActivity that presents a map (it is called "Map").
Main, Form, and Map are declared exactly the same in the manifest:
<activity android:name="fully qualified
activity class"
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation"
>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
When Main is active and I start Form and press "back", Main comes up again. Pressing "back" again brings up "Splash". Nothing strange here.
Now comes the strange part: when I am in Main, start Map, and press "back", Main comes up as expected. But pressing "back" again just restarts Main. A second press on "back" is needed to bring me back to Splash!
So it seems that starting the Map
activity somehow results in Main ending up on the
activity stack twice while starting the Form
activity does not!
Both Form and Map are started like this:
startActivity(new Intent(this, MyActivity.class));
I don not catch the back key in any
activity.
Any clues on what is going on or how to debug this?
