Re: [android-developers] Which Intent flag should I use?

Do you really want this to be deep in your app?  If you want finishing to go back to the launcher, it sounds like this should be done as a separate task than the main app task.  If that is the case, don't use special Intent flags, just set android:taskAffinity="" for this activity.  (Or give it a scoped name for the affinity if multiple activities are going to inter-operate in the same task.)

This is part of my ongoing effort to tidy up my AppWidget code:

When a user clicks on my Widget, it goes to an Activity "deep" in my
app.  When the user finishes this activity, I'd like to exit back to
the Launcher as opposed to whatever the last Activity on the stack is
for my app.

Is there an Intent flag I am not using correctly?  I tried all the
ones I could see to be relevant, but nothing worked.  I know I could
probably pass result codes back up the stack to wind down my app, but
that's some ugly stuff.  Is there an easier way?

Happy New Year everyone!
