Android Activity Lifecycle

Came across this today, and it could be very helpful for those trying to learn Android programming by looking at the buzztouch code. Using this flowchart, you can see how the various methods are used in relation to each other. And then using David's code, you can see what happens when these methods are called. Helps you learn Android programming, and gives you a better understanding of how your app works, and how it responds to other events on your device! http://www.androidacademy.com/3-features/40-current/183-10-things-every-android-developer-needs-to-know?start=9 The rest of the site is pretty cool as well. Some of the info is a bit dated, but still enough there to help you learn. Mark

You are a never ending resource of information @GoNorthWest. My device is going to explode with the amount of bookmarks I have made from you. I just don't know how you find the time, I am starting to think you have a Clone!

Glad I could be of help, @Mr Stuck! I'm fairly good at multitasking, so while I'm waiting for one thing to happen, or on a call, I might hit 'Stumble!' and see where it takes me! Then one thing leads to another and...well, there you have it! Mark

@GoNorthWest you have been a great help from day one. Just searching the forums for answers to questions throws up multiple replies from you. Think you deserve a break (better give that Clone a shout, lol!)

I appreciate the props! I, too, am constantly learning new stuff, and I love to share. So I don't see myself slowing down...actually working on a pretty big project I hope to share with the community it a few months!
