Splace screen tutorial for android

Many Applications, mostly games, on the market show splash screens. With this screen they prompt a logo for the application and/or the author.

I will show you a short way to implement a splash screen which will occur on every startup, will stay for a number of seconds you can define, will close on touching the screen and will not reappear on pressing the back button.

I created an empty project named SplashScreen with the activity SplashScreen. This activity will display the splash screen, so we have to create a new activity which will be the first real view you want to display.

Slacescreen.java :


public class splashscreen extends Activity
{
    public boolean active =true;
    public int stime =5000;
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.splash);
       
        Thread sp =new Thread()
        {
            public void run()
            {
                try
                {
                    int waited =0;
                    while (active && (waited < stime))
                    {
                        sleep(100);
                        if(active)
                        {
                            waited +=100;
                        }
                    }
                }
                catch (InterruptedException e)
                {
                    Log.d("Exception","Exception"+e.toString());
                }
                finally
                {
                    finish();
                    Intent i=new Intent(getApplicationContext(),SplashActivity.class);
                    startActivity(i);
                }
            }
        };
        sp.start();
    }
}


In above code there is a SplaceActivity.class ,is transfer the next screen after the slace screen.
