How to bring an activity to foreground (top of stack)?

In Android, I defined an activity ExampleActivity.

When my application was launched, an instance of this A-Activity was created, say it is A. When user clicked a button in A, another instance of B-Activity, B was created. Now the task stack is B-A, with B at the top. Then, user clicked a button on B, another instance of C-Activity, and C was created. Now the task stack is C-B-A, with C at the top.

Now, when user click a button on C, I want the application to bring A to the foreground, i.e. make A to be at the top of task stack, A-C-B.

How can I write the code to make it happen?

I think a combination of Intent flags should do the trick. In particular, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP and Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK.

Add these flags to your intent before calling startActvity.

In general I think this method of activity management is not recommended. The problem with reactivating an activity two Steps down in The Stack is that this activity has likely been killed. My advice into remember the state of your activities and launch them with startActivity ()
