How to use onWindowFocusChanged() method?


I am confused in how to trigger an event when the activity is changed. One thing that I know is using onWindowFocusChanged() method but I don't know how to use it. Please help in one example i.e. when the activity changes, it should show a toast said "Activity changed".


Solution

  • The following method gets called when window's focus changes. For instance, if the window gains/losses focus, it will be triggered. In case, the window gains focus, hasFocus is true and false otherwise.

     @Override
     public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus) {         
         super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus);
         if (hasFocus) 
             Toast.makeText(context, text, duration).show();
     }
