My application has the following flow screens :
Home->screen 1->screen 2->screen 3->screen 4->screen 5
Now I have a common log out
button in each screens
(Home/ screen 1 / screen 2 /screen 3/ screen 4 / screen 5
)
I want that when user clicks on the log out button(from any screen), all the screens will be finished and a new screen Log in
will open .
I have tried nearly all FLAG_ACTIVITY
to achieve this. I also go through some answers in stackoverflow, but not being able to solve the problem. My application is on Android 1.6 so not being able to use FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK
Is there any way to solve the issue ?
On Clicking the back button from the New Activity, the finish() method is called and the activity destroys and returns to the home screen.
exit(); or finish(); it exit full application or all activity.
In the second activity, the back button at the top left can be used to go back to the previous activity.
Use:
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Home.class); intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP); startActivity(intent);
This will clear all the activities on top of home.
Assuming you are finishing the login screen when the user logs in and home is created and afterward all the screens from 1 to 5 on top of that one. The code I posted will return you to home screen finishing all the other activities. You can add an extra in the intent and read that in the home screen activity and finish it also (maybe launch login screen again from there or something).
I am not sure but you can also try going to login with this flag. I don't know how the activities will be ordered in that case. So don't know if it will clear the ones below the screen you are on including the one you are currently on but it's definitely the way to go.
