Class RCSolo

java.lang.Object

Solo

com.jayway.android.robotium.solo.RCSolo

public class RCSolo
extends Solo

From release4.0, Robotium has removed the API getAllOpenedActivities(). We want to keep supporting this API in Robotium RemoteControl. As in class Solo, there is a protected field activityUtils, which provides the API getAllOpenedActivities(), so RCSolo is created as subclass of Solo. But ActivityUtils is only visible within package com.jayway.android.robotium.solo, so the class RCSolo is put in the same package.

There are also some other protected fields, which are useful, such as:
Solo#checker
Solo#asserter
Solo#clicker
Solo#dialogUtils
Solo#getter
Solo#presser
Solo#screenshotTaker
Solo#scroller
Solo#searcher
Solo#sender
Solo#setter
Solo#sleeper
Solo#textEnterer
Solo#viewFetcher
Solo#waiter
Solo#webUrl
Solo#webUtils

But these fields can ONLY be used in this class or its subclass within package com.jayway.android.robotium.solo.

Since:

May 21, 2013

Method Detail

getAllOpenedActivities

public java.util.List<Activity> getAllOpenedActivities()

This method is removed from Solo from Robotium4.1 release.
Expose it in RCSolo to keep the backward compatibility.

finishInactiveActivities

public void finishInactiveActivities()

Deprecated.

This method is removed from Solo from Robotium4.1 release.

The Activity handling has changed since that method was introduced. Only weak references of Activities are now stored and Activities are now also removed as soon as new ones are opened. Due to these changes finishInactiveActivities has lost its purpose. The old implementation introduced crashes as keeping references to Activities resulted in memory not being freed.

Expose it in RCSolo as a do-nothing to keep the backward compatibility.
