Interface ApplicationListener

All Known Implementing Classes:

ApplicationAdapter, Game

public interface ApplicationListener

An ApplicationListener is called when the Application is created, resumed, rendering, paused or destroyed. All methods are called in a thread that has the OpenGL context current. You can thus safely create and manipulate graphics resources.

The ApplicationListener interface follows the standard Android activity life-cycle and is emulated on the desktop accordingly.
