Question

Form Activity Login I call

Intent intent=new Intent(LogIn.this,BRInfoActivity.class);

From Activity BrActivityList I Call

Inten         


        

Answer 1

Form Activity Login call this--

Intent intent=new Intent(LogIn.this,BRInfoActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("call_from","ActivityClass");

From Activity BrActivityList Call--

Intent intent=new Intent(BRActiviList.this, BRInfoActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("call_from", "BRActivity");

Now, when you get the intent, compare the "call_from" string in an if-else block! That's it!

Answer 2

May this help you...

The new intent comes as part of onNewIntent(Intent). The original Intent is still available via getIntent().

You put whatever code you need to into onNewIntent in order to update the UI with the new parameters; probably similar to what you're doing in onCreate.

Also, you probably want to call setIntent(intent) in onNewIntent to make sure future calls to getIntent() within the Activity lifecycle get the most recent Intent data.

Answer 3

If you will start activity with startActivityForResult(). Then you can use getCallingActivity() to get caller.
