Sample project to test a Application Lifecycle Observer using ProcessOwner Lifecycle

Primary LanguageKotlin

application-lifecycle-observer-sample

This is a sample project created as part of this Stackoverflow question I raised in an attempt to isloate the issue I encounted with the LifecycleObserver.onCreate(owner: LifecycleOwner) not being called when obsering the Application lifecycle in particalar when the applicaion is created.

It consists of 3 classes with log statements

  • ApplicationLifecycleObserver - my Observer that logs onCreate, onStart and onStop
  • MyApplication - registers the ApplicationLifecycleObserver to the ProcessLifecycleOwner and logs when onCreate called
  • MainActivity - empty activity which logs when onCreate called

However, as shown in the screen shot below this is behaved as expected. Therefore the issue I'm seeing in a production app could be related to something else 🤔
