Question

I would like to create a button in my game for the user. The button will quit the application.

Please can someone tell me if there is a way to do this.

Thanks.

Edit:
I have an activity which uses another activity with a class that extends Android.app.Application using set and get methods.

Simply using the back button switches the activities until it goes to the beginning.

I go in between these classes 20 times.

Thats why I needed a back button. But I guess there isn’t so I will have to do it the long way and set everything back to the first state on quit. Thanks

If I read your full question, you are looking for a Reset button not exactly a quit button. I had a similar issue… the next and previous takes only one step back at a time. I wanted to go back to the very beginning. The way I acheived this is to have a class to manage the pseudocursor.. basically an int that represented which resource to pick (I used a singleton). In the main activity’s Menu (android.view.Menu), I added a reset/go to beginning option. This will simply reset the pseudocursor. In my activity class’s onResume(), I had the code to get the resource from the singleton. So no extra coding was required there.

Instead of having this option under Menu, you can always have a button in UI which does the same thing.
