Hi,


Is it possible to close or kill adobe reader with instruction.

Thanks for your responses

I find this library : http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/os-library.11267/#post62954
but i don't know find PID or packagename of adobe reader

 

[cncncn]

I find my pid but it doesn't work

dim closeadobe as operatingsystem
closeadobe.initialize("closeadobe")
closeadobe.killprocess(144287)

why? permissions?

See my answer in the other thread.

I read yours answers and i can't find the answer.

 

[Erel]

Because there is no reliable way to kill other processes in Android.

 

[cncncn]

ah ok. But with closeadobe.killprocess i don't have problem

Hi Erel,

You were right, it is not reliable. No way to close adobe?

 

[Erel]

As I previously answered there is no reliable way to kill other processes. This includes Adobe Reader.

You can use a service to bring your activity to front with StartActivity.

How? With StartActivity i start the intent for display a PDF, but i need close this for delete it and create a new with same name.

Call StartActivity from the service to start your activity.
