A checked exception is one that must be caught from the perspective of
the java compiler (extends Exception). An unchecked exception doesn't
have to be caught (extends RuntimeException). The java compiler will
tell you if a checked exception can be thrown and oblige you to handle
it. Is this what you're talking about?
If you show a dialog in in onCreate, I'm pretty sure the activity
lifecycle is still going to complete. I don't think you can prevent
that. If you don't want the user to interact with the activity at all
after you show a dialog, I'd recommend putting a call to finish() in
the dismiss and cancel handlers for your dialog so that the activity
will be on its way out ASAP.
