Question

I want to Print the name of all launched Activity name on a textView. Means If I run some activity manually e.g.

abcActivity.class, xyxActivity.class etc.

After that I have a button when I click on it, then it print the all Activity name in the following format:

Name of Launched Activity:

abcActivity

xyxActivity .

Button is in another Activity file...!!!

abcActivity, xyzActivity etc are from your application ? or any app. of phone ? — Kartik Domadiya, Feb 03 '12 at 12:42

Here is what I think :

Create a public static ArrayList<String> object in any one of the class so that you can use it in all other activities.

Now In onResume() method, check whether the className exists, if yes then dont add className in arrayListObject. Otherwise add the className of current activity in arrayListObject using add method of arrayList ie arrayListObject.add(activityName);.

You can get Class Name using :

#1 this.getClass().getName();

#2 Directly use "ABCActivity"

#3 context.getClassName();

Now you can use this arrayListObject to display all this values in TextView.

Note : You will also have to take care of when the Activity1 is launching for the first time. At that time you will have to clear the arrayListObject and then have a fresh start.

For this I recommend you to go through the post : Application Launch Count

In your activity, onResume() method add System.out (or) log statement this.getClass().getName();.

System.out.println(this.getClass().getName());

(or)

Log.d(this.getClass().getName(), "Insdie onResume");

And how I capture the all Class name? Button is in another activity file. – Android Boy Feb 03 '12 at 12:53
As Karthink said have a static list in one of utility classes (not activity class), keep on adding all the activities you touched. – kosa Feb 03 '12 at 12:57

use the log method for loggging data and printing it over logcat. You can put a line like this

Log.v(TAG,"abcActivity");

I want to print it on my textView. Not on DDMS. – Android Boy Feb 03 '12 at 12:44
well your launched activity name is just your classname..you can just use the Textview.settext(String) and pass the classname to it. – Amol Gupta Feb 03 '12 at 12:47

you can use

context.getClassName(); to get activity, service or BroadcastReceiver's name.
