I have activities A and B. The A is the one with LAUNCHER intent-filter

  • 0

I have activities A and B. The A is the one with LAUNCHER intent-filter (i.e. the activity that is started when we click the app icon on home screen).

A launches B using startActivity(new Intent(A.this, B.class)).

When the user has the B activity open, and then put my application into the background, and later my application’s process is killed, when the user starts my application again, B is opened instead of A.

This caused a force close in my app, because A is the activity that initializes the resources my app needs, and when B tried to access the uninitialized resources, B crashes.

Do you have any suggestions what should I do in this situation?

    Well you should really have activity B initialize your resources too. But you can put android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" in your manifest for activity A to have the launcher always go to that activity.
