Bender, put your db in a local Service. Open the db in onCreate() close it in onDestroy(). Your Activities can bind and unbind to the Service as many times as you like. The system will keep the service running as long as you have an activity in the foreground process bound to it or otherwise until it needs to reclaim the resources.
Take a look at : http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LocalService.html but DONT have your binder as a non-static inner class as in the example - or you will create a memory leak and leak your Service. Instead, pass the binder a reference to your service in onCreate and get the binder to null the reference out in onDestroy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
