I have an Activity which is launched from a Service. This Activity can spawn other children Activities.
Now under certain conditions (particularly related to using screen lock), I can end up with the Service starting a second copy of the Activity again. For reasons of performance, the Service is being started and stopped at various times, and cannot be relied on to hold state. What is the best way to prevent this second launch? Can I (for example) detect that the Activity is already running in the stack and do finish()? This feels like it should be straight forward - perhaps I'm being thick - forgive me.
