The requirement is to kill an application which is pushed to the background after a time interval. How can i do that in android? If anybody could share the code snippet, it would be great.
Thanks, Jinu

Shouldn't this be handled at the Operating System level? – midhunhk Oct 07 '13 at 10:49

3The Android OS is perfectly capable of killing an App in the background. Don't interfere. – RvdK Oct 07 '13 at 10:49

I assume you would want to kill applications other than yours ? – njzk2 Oct 07 '13 at 10:54

The android framework does not provide permission to kill other app process. You can only kill your app processes.
Process kill permission is only for system apps.
Still try using this permission in your Menifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES"/>
