All right, I confess: it was after midnight and I forgot to add extra argument in API call, hence did not make the test work.
So this IS THE WAY to restart app once and then let system care for subsequent restart if app exits !!!
Problem solved.
Here is the code of you main function, everything else will be your normal UI Application:
public static void main(String[] args)
{
if (args.length == 0)
{
// need autorestart
ApplicationDescriptor descr = ApplicationDescriptor.currentApplicationDescriptor();
ApplicationDescriptor newDescr = new ApplicationDescriptor(descr, descr.getName(), new String[] { "auto" },
descr.getIcon(), descr.getPosition(), descr.getNameResourceBundle(), descr.getNameResourceId(),
ApplicationDescriptor.FLAG_AUTO_RESTART);
ApplicationManager.getApplicationManager().scheduleApplication(newDescr,
System.currentTimeMillis() + 60001, true);
System.exit(0);
return;
}
AutoRestartApp app = new AutoRestartApp();
app.enterEventDispatcher();
}
