onPause fires directly when called onActivityResult

Question

I am using onActivityResult() and onPause() methods in one activity. Now the problem is that whenever onActivityResult() fires, it calls onPause() in the end and so application gets close. How to prevent this problem ? Code :

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

    if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK
            && null != data) {
        Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
        String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };

        Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,
                filePathColumn, null, null, null);
        cursor.moveToFirst();

        int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
        picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
        cursor.close();

        ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgView);
        imageView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(picturePath));
    }
}

@Override
protected void onPause() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onPause();
    finish();
}

Answer 1

Please use the boolean variable and activate it onActivityForResult method.

@Override
protected void onPause() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onPause();
if(!isActivate)
    finish();
}
