user.
[Android.Runtime.Register("onStart", "()V", "GetOnStartHandler")]
protected virtual void OnStart ();[<Android.Runtime.Register("onStart", "()V", "GetOnStartHandler")>]
abstract member OnStart : unit -> unit
override this.OnStart : unit -> unit- Attributes
Remarks
Called after #onCreate — or after #onRestart when the activity had been stopped, but is now again being displayed to the user. It will usually be followed by #onResume. This is a good place to begin drawing visual elements, running animations, etc.
You can call #finish from within this function, in which case #onStop will be immediately called after #onStart without the lifecycle transitions in-between (#onResume, #onPause, etc) executing.
<em>Derived classes must call through to the super class's implementation of this method. If they do not, an exception will be thrown.</em>
