I have two buttons on my application. One button starts a new Game (lets say solitair).
When ever this button is pressed it will always start a new game
My problem is that I would like a second button to go back to the game that has already started if the user clicks back.
How do I go about recalling that activity that has already been created
Thanks
You have to save the state of the activity
onSaveInstanceState() and onRestoreInstanceState()are used to handle the activity stateonSaveInstanceState() method gets called for an activity when user leaves the activity. Note this method is only called when activity is present in the History state and user can come back to the activity.
onRestoreInstanceState() restores the state of the views.
