Android 设置和不设置 android:targetSdkVersion的区别

最近在帮客户调试一个项目，要求用户按下电源键(锁屏)后调用一个SDK关闭接口。

在正常的manifest文件中我们通常会做类似设置：

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"
        android:targetSdkVersion="17" />

我们来看看按下电源键后Activity的状态变化：

可以看到，按下电源键后，显示执行了onPuase，接着是onStop，然后才收到按下电源键的系统广播。

那么，如果把

android:targetSdkVersion

去掉，改成这样：

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"/>

会怎样呢，请看如下：

我去，居然不走onStop了！

深层原因还在研究中。

原因找到了：

The change in lifecycle came with Honeycomb, or when changing an app that targeted sdk 10 or lower to one that targets sdk 11 or higher.

If an Android project declares a targetSDKversion of 10 or less, then when the power button is clicked, onPause is called, but not onStop. This is contrary to what many people think. With targetSDKversion = 11 or higher, however, onPause then onStop will be called when the power button is clicked.
