Constants | |||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
int | MOVE_TASK_NO_USER_ACTION | Flag for moveTaskToFront(int, int) : don't count this as a
user-instigated action, so the current activity will not receive a
hint that the user is leaving. |

activity along with the task, so it is positioned immediately behind
the task. |

int | RECENT_IGNORE_UNAVAILABLE | Provides a list that does not contain any recent tasks that currently are not available to the user. | |||||||||
int | RECENT_WITH_EXCLUDED | Flag for use with getRecentTasks(int, int) : return all tasks, even those

moveTaskToFront(int, int, Bundle)

This method was deprecated
in API level 8.
This is now just a wrapper for
killBackgroundProcesses(String) ; the previous behavior here
is no longer available to applications because it allows them to

Flag for moveTaskToFront(int, int)
: don't count this as a
user-instigated action, so the current activity will not receive a
hint that the user is leaving.
Flag for moveTaskToFront(int, int)
: also move the "home"
activity along with the task, so it is positioned immediately behind
the task.
Provides a list that does not contain any recent tasks that currently are not available to the user.
Flag for use with getRecentTasks(int, int)
: return all tasks, even those
that have set their
FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS
flag.
Get the device configuration attributes.
Return the approximate per-application memory class of the current
device when an application is running with a large heap. This is the
space available for memory-intensive applications; most applications
should not need this amount of memory, and should instead stay with the
getMemoryClass()
limit. The returned value is in megabytes.
This may be the same size as getMemoryClass()
on memory
constrained devices, or it may be significantly larger on devices with
a large amount of available RAM.
The is the size of the application's Dalvik heap if it has
specified android:largeHeap="true"
in its manifest.
Get the preferred density of icons for the launcher. This is used when custom drawables are created (e.g., for shortcuts).
Get the preferred launcher icon size. This is used when custom drawables are created (e.g., for shortcuts).
Return the approximate per-application memory class of the current device. This gives you an idea of how hard a memory limit you should impose on your application to let the overall system work best. The returned value is in megabytes; the baseline Android memory class is 16 (which happens to be the Java heap limit of those devices); some device with more memory may return 24 or even higher numbers.
Return general information about the memory state of the system. This
can be used to help decide how to manage your own memory, though note
that polling is not recommended and
ComponentCallbacks2.onTrimMemory(int)
is the preferred way to do this.
Also see getMyMemoryState(ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo)
for how to retrieve the current trim
level of your process as needed, which gives a better hint for how to
manage its memory.
Return global memory state information for the calling process. This
does not fill in all fields of the ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo
. The
only fields that will be filled in are
pid
,
uid
,
lastTrimLevel
,
importance
,
lru
, and
importanceReasonCode
.
Return information about the memory usage of one or more processes.
Note: this method is only intended for debugging or building a user-facing process management UI.
pids | The pids of the processes whose memory usage is to be retrieved. |
---|
Returns a list of any processes that are currently in an error condition. The result will be null if all processes are running properly at this time.
Return a list of the tasks that the user has recently launched, with the most recent being first and older ones after in order.
Note: this method is only intended for debugging and presenting task management user interfaces. This should never be used for core logic in an application, such as deciding between different behaviors based on the information found here. Such uses are not supported, and will likely break in the future. For example, if multiple applications can be actively running at the same time, assumptions made about the meaning of the data here for purposes of control flow will be incorrect.
maxNum | The maximum number of entries to return in the list. The actual number returned may be smaller, depending on how many tasks the user has started and the maximum number the system can remember. |
---|---|
flags | Information about what to return. May be any combination
of RECENT_WITH_EXCLUDED and RECENT_IGNORE_UNAVAILABLE . |
SecurityException | Throws SecurityException if the caller does
not hold the GET_TASKS permission.
|
---|
Returns a list of application processes that are running on the device.
Note: this method is only intended for debugging or building a user-facing process management UI.
Returns a PendingIntent you can start to show a control panel for the given running service. If the service does not have a control panel, null is returned.
SecurityException |
---|
Return a list of the services that are currently running.
Note: this method is only intended for debugging or implementing service management type user interfaces.
maxNum | The maximum number of entries to return in the list. The actual number returned may be smaller, depending on how many services are running. |
---|
SecurityException |
---|
Return a list of the tasks that are currently running, with the most recent being first and older ones after in order. Note that "running" does not mean any of the task's code is currently loaded or activity -- the task may have been frozen by the system, so that it can be restarted in its previous state when next brought to the foreground.

Returns "true" if device is running in a test harness.
Returns "true" if the user interface is currently being messed with by a monkey.
Have the system immediately kill all background processes associated with the given package. This is the same as the kernel killing those processes to reclaim memory; the system will take care of restarting these processes in the future as needed.
You must hold the permission
KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES
to be able to
call this method.
packageName | The name of the package whose processes are to be killed. |
---|
Ask that the task associated with a given task ID be moved to the
front of the stack, so it is now visible to the user. Requires that
the caller hold permission REORDER_TASKS
or a SecurityException will be thrown.
taskId | The identifier of the task to be moved, as found in
ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo or ActivityManager.RecentTaskInfo . |
---|---|
flags | Additional operational flags, 0 or more of
MOVE_TASK_WITH_HOME . |
options | Additional options for the operation, either null or
as per Context.startActivity(Intent, Bundle) .
|
Equivalent to calling moveTaskToFront(int, int, Bundle)
with a null options argument.
taskId | The identifier of the task to be moved, as found in
ActivityManager.RunningTaskInfo or ActivityManager.RecentTaskInfo . |
