The more general problem you are encountering is how to save stateacross several Activities and all parts of your application. A staticvariable (for instance, a singleton) is a common Java way of achievingthis. I have found however, that a more elegant way in Android is toassociate your state with the Application context.?

--如想在整個(gè)應(yīng)用中使用，在java中一般是使用靜態(tài)變量，而在android中有個(gè)更優(yōu)雅的方式是使用Application context。?

As you know, each Activity is also a Context, which is informationabout its execution environment in the broadest sense. Your applicationalso has a context, and Android guarantees that it will exist as asingle instance across your application.?
--每個(gè)Activity 都是Context，其包含了其運(yùn)行時(shí)的一些狀態(tài)，android保證了其是single instance的。?

The way to do this is to create your own subclass of android.app.Application,and then specify that class in the application tag in your manifest.Now Android will automatically create an instance of that class andmake it available for your entire application. You can access it fromany context using the Context.getApplicationContext() method (Activityalso provides a method getApplication() which has the exact sameeffect):?
--方法是創(chuàng)建一個(gè)屬于你自己的android.app.Application的子類，然后在manifest中申明一下這個(gè)類，這是android就為此建立一個(gè)全局可用的實(shí)例，你可以在其他任何地方使用Context.getApplicationContext()方法獲取這個(gè)實(shí)例，進(jìn)而獲取其中的狀態(tài)（變量）。?

給個(gè)例子：?

This has essentially the same effect as using a static variable orsingleton, but integrates quite well into the existing Androidframework. Note that this will not work across processes (should yourapp be one of the rare ones that has multiple processes).?
--這個(gè)效果就是使用靜態(tài)變量是一樣的，但是其更符合android的架構(gòu)體系。

android定義全局變量
