Question

I have an activity that launches another activity with startActivityForResult method. I would like to terminate the called one programmatically but I don’t know how to do this since in onActivityResult() method I have no information about the called activity and I cannot call finish() on it. How can I achieve this?

Thanks

Answer 1

Try finishActivity(requestCode). According to the documentation it lets you finish an activity previously started with startActivityForResult. And if there are multiple such activities with the same request code, all will be finished.

Note: I haven’t actually tried this myself, but that’s what the documentation says! Experiment with that, see if it does what you want.
