Question

I have a TabActivity that shows other Activities as the content based on which tab is selected. What I want to do is from the ‘parent’ Activity try to capture the back key press, but neither onKeyDown() nor onBackPressed() ever get called in the parent… it’s being handled by the ‘child’ Activities. Is there any way to have it pass up to the ‘parent’ Activity?

Answer 1

Why not just using, from within the child Activity:

@Override
public void onBackPressed () {
    this.getParent().onBackPressed();
}
