Question

When i am clicking back button, i am displaying one confirmation dialog box with yes and no.
But without clicking the yes button, it is automatically going back to the previous screen.
My code part is :

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
    if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK)
    {
        new AlertDialog.Builder(this).setMessage("Do you want to exit the application?")
        .setPositiveButton("YES", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                finish();
            }
        }).setNegativeButton("NO", null).show();
        return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
    }
    return false;
}

Help me.

Answer 1

return false;

means that you’re not consuming the back-button so the action will follow the next step:

super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);

Try changing it to:

return true;

to indicate that you’ve already consumed the back-button.
