Hi i have a screen which has an edit field.

Now  i make changes on this edit field.... and do my further processing.

Now i want to go back to my previous screen, so i press the back button,  then it gives me a prompt as SAVE, DISCARD,CANCEL.

I dont want this prompt to come.

How can i disable it.

If you want to go back using the back button you may want to overwrite the keyChar method and in it check if(ch == Characters.ESCAPE) and pop your current screen. This will work without disabling the prompt.

I found that this the flowchart on Victor Ewerts blog that explains screen saving flow very succinctly. I think overwriting isDirty is the simplest way to disable the prompt, it also retains the use of the escape button, which overwriting onSavePrompt does not.

public boolean isDirty() {
	return false;
}

Another quick-and-dirty method is to use setDirty(false), but I do agree that overriding isDirty() is probably the more standard approach.
