Why does activity manager shows starting intent message?
android, java
Solution
Any idea why this info is shown in log ?
Because the Android engineer responsible for `ActivityManager` chose to log it. Frankly, I wish this engineer had not done this.
what is the meaning of this message ?
It means Android is starting an activity, using the `Intent` described in the log message.
Problem
In between of running my application activity manager just display message I/ActivityManager(159): Starting: Intent { act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.LAUNCHER] flg=0x10100000 cmp=com.rfb.client/.RFB_ClientActivity bnds=[182,205][238,271] } from pid 159 it keeps on displaying this message. Any idea why this info is shown in log ? what is the meaning of this message ? Please let know if you know about this.
