In this example we'll learn how we can add back button to each activity in android studio.
Exmaple ::
activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<Button
android:id="@+id/firstActivity"
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="30dp"
android:text="Open Activity One" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/secondActivity"
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="30dp"
android:text="Open Activity Two" />
</LinearLayout>
MainActivity.java
package com.example.malik.blog;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button firstActivity, secondActivity;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
firstActivity = (Button) findViewById(R.id.firstActivity);
secondActivity = (Button) findViewById(R.id.secondActivity);
firstActivity.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, FirstActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
secondActivity.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
}
activity_first.xml
