[android-developers] Pause/Resume vs. Stop/Start

Hello.

I'm hoping to get a better handle on these callbacks in the Activity
life-cycle. One would think that Pause/Resume is one thing and Stop/
Start is another, but on Android it seems there is no instance of
Pause without Stop, and no instance of Resume without Start. Or is
there some use case where Pause/Resume can occur outside of Stop/
Start?

If the two pairs do always occur together then the only difference is
*when* they occur. In what scenarios would one need to distinguish
Activity.Pause from Activity.Stop, since they both always happen?

Thanks,
BT
