I have set locked orientation
and added the sample code with 2 simple classes like below:
SplashLandscapeActivity.java
public class SplashLandscapeActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Log.d("start", "xxxx start Activity SplashLandscapeActivity");
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
startActivity(new Intent(SplashLandscapeActivity.this, TestActivity.class));
finish();
}
}, 500);
}
@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
Log.d("start", "xxxx onDestroy Activity SplashLandscapeActivity");
}
}
TestActivity.java
public class TestActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Log.d("start", "xxxx start Activity TestActivity "
+ getResources().getConfiguration().orientation);
}
@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
Log.d("start", "xxxx onDestroy Activity TestActivity "
+ getResources().getConfiguration().orientation);
}
}
AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".SplashLandscapeActivity"
android:theme="@style/SplashTheme"
android:screenOrientation="landscape">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".TestActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"/>
</application>
</manifest>
When I use new Handler().postDelayed (SplashLandscapeActivity.java) to start TestActivity, It's started twice, the first one has Landscape orientation then switch back to portrait. The log showed it all:
xxxx start Activity SplashLandscapeActivity
xxxx start Activity TestActivity 2 // <== landscape
xxxx onDestroy Activity TestActivity 1
xxxx start Activity TestActivity 1 // <== portrait
xxxx onDestroy Activity SplashLandscapeActivity
And if I remove that Handler, TestActivity now started with portrait like normal.
xxxx start Activity SplashLandscapeActivity
xxxx start Activity TestActivity 1
xxxx onDestroy Activity SplashLandscapeActivity
So, my question is:
1- Is this system issue or its intended behavior? Why activity is restarted even the screenOrientation was set fixed in Manifest?
2- Actually, my real project do not have any Handler but has the same issue that activity started twice (after start with Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK). How can I deal with this issue?
