Question

I want to quit application in Android. Just put a “quit” button, which kills my app.

I know I shouldn’t do this. I know that this is not the philosophy of the OS.

If you know how it can be done, pls share.

In the app, I have many opened activities, so “finish()” will not do the job.

Thank you for your information in advance.

Your answer helped me, Pentium10, but I needed to do one more thing :

I had to clear(close) all my previous activities with

Intent i = new Intent();

i.setClass(this, FirstActivity.class);

i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);

startActivity(i);

This means: every activity, started after FirstActivity, is closed. (In other words, this cleans the activity stack above FirstActivity). Then all I have to do is finish my FirstActivity.
