How can I skip onResume while starting of an Fragment?

Question

Basically I am looking to place some code in OnResume() which gets triggered only when a user pressses back from an activity that was called from this fragment but that code inside onResume() should not get executed on Start

Answer 1

You can use startActivityForResult to start activity and onActivityResult will be called when you come back.

If you want the behavior you mentioned in onResume anyway, you may use a boolean flag:

boolean started = false;

@Override
public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    if(started) {
        //do your task
    } else {
        started = true;
    }
}

But onActivityResult is the good way to do this.
