    <p>In my Android application, I have a <code>DefaultApplication</code> class which extends <code>android.app.Application</code>, and in its <code>onCreate()</code> I bind some services which will be used by my other Activities in this app.</p> <p>Also I have a <code>BroadcastReceiver</code> which listens and receives C2DM Messages. When this receiver receives a message when the application is not running, it will fire a dialog which shows the upcoming message and it will start an Activity of my application.</p> <p>My question is, when I start an activity without any interaction with <code>DefaultApplication</code>, will my <code>DefaultApplication</code>'s <code>onCreate()</code> get called because an Activity of that application has started?</p> <p>Here are the definition and Manifest of my <code>DefaultApplication</code>:</p> <pre><code>public class DefaultApplication extends Application { @Override public void onCreate() { super.onCreate(); doBindService(); } void doBindService() { // Establish a connection with the service. We use an explicit // class name because we want a specific service implementation that // we know will be running in our own process (and thus won't be // supporting component replacement by other applications). bindService(new Intent(DefaultApplication.this, SocketService.class), socketServiceConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE); mIsBound = true; } void doUnbindService() { if (mIsBound) { // Detach our existing connection. unbindService(socketServiceConnection); mIsBound = false; } } } </code></pre> <p>Manifest looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:name="com.mypackage.DefaultApplication" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" android:debuggable="true"&gt; &lt;service android:name="com.mypackage.services.SocketService"&gt;&lt;/service&gt; &lt;activity android:name="TestActivity" android:screenOrientation="landscape"&gt;&lt;/activity&gt; &lt;/application&gt; </code></pre>

    3. CO@LAS_VEGAS In the rest of my DefaultApplication I store some data and define some methods which are used Application-wide. I copied only a part of it to here.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
