[mono-android] Automatic activity start

[Martyn Wendon]

Hi John,

Yes, we're inheriting Application and doing a *lot* of initialisation in OnCreate in order to provide application wide access to various objects.

It's an internal use application (a media display sign) that will be running 24/7 so the initial start time wasn't too much of a concern unti now!

We've worked around the timeout by writing a second application that has the BroadcastReceiver in it and that starts the first application, this seems to work ok and will likely eventually end up being a watchdog type service to ensure the main application is always running.

Thanks,

Martyn

What device are you running this on? Unless you're providing a custom Application type and doing a ton of work within Application.OnCreate() or BroadcastReceiver.OnCreate(), I'm not sure why it would be taking 10s+ to hit your OnReceive() method...
