Hi,
In B4A my app is a series of activities, and because the app can unload an activity when not being used, i always save sate away when the activity is deactivated.
In B4i, I am porting this app, I use the page/multi-module approach, each page has a code module, so it is more like the B4A app, each module implements a show() method as Erel's guidelines.
Most folk talk here about saving state on application_background (the overall app - not the page), so my question is
1) do I need to save state when one of my pages is hidden from view, restore state when displayed? If so are there page events to catch for show/hide?
Or
2) as long as the overall app is not in background, can I still access all page code module public scoped variables, and not bother about between page state saving?
