Android: Return search query to current activity

Question

I followed the steps described on http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/search/search-dialog.html to implement a search feature in my notepad application.

My pro

Answer 1

in the manifest file, add:

android:launchMode="singleTop"

To your search activity. Then, let your search activity implement SearchView.OnSuggestionListener finally:

mSearchView.setOnSuggestListener(this)

this way you can handle the suggestion click event with out creating a new instance of your search activity.
