Default catch red/hangup button

Please Login to Remove!

Hi guys,

I have a program that should always popup a password screen when it starts up. The problem is that pressing the red hangup button simply puts the program into background, so the next person who opens it WONT be prompted for the password.

I'm trying to catch the KEY_END event and close the application (as per this thread).

Using this method:

Code:
class Password extends PopupScreen implements
   KeyListener, TrackwheelListener {
...
  public boolean keyDown (int keycode, int time){
       switch (keycode)
       {
            case 1179648:
                close();
                break; 
       }
    return false;
    }
It does SEEM to be possible, as this user points out in a therad at the end.

I've tried both methods (KEY_END and 1179648) Neither closing the application.

Any ideas?

put your password popup or whatever in the activate method of UiApplcation:

Code:
public class myApp extends UiApplication {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
        myApp instance = new myApp();
        instance.enterEventDispatcher();
    }

public void activate() {
//push password prompt
}

}
'Handles foregrounding event.

The system invokes this method when it brings this application to the foreground. By default, this method does nothing. Override this method to perform additional processing when being brought to the foreground.'

That did the trick, thanks. Incase anyone comes across this problem, be sure to check there are no screens open before you prompt for password. Pretty easy:

Code:
    public void activate() {
    if(pWord.getContents() != null)
    {
        while(this.getScreenCount() > 1)
        {
            this.popScreen();
        }
        //Push password prompt because we've been put into background
        password = new Password();
        UiApplication.getApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run(){
                UiApplication.getUiApplication().pushModalScreen(password);
            }
        });
    }
    }
