Java – why is the onnewintent (intent) method called twice?

I start a new activity with two parameters

Intent intent = new Intent(WebTestActivity.this,MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);                  
Uri uri =  Uri.parse(url);
intent.setData(uri);
startActivity(intent);

And capture the URI in the onnewintent method

@Override
public void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {  //calls twice
    super.onNewIntent(intent);      
    Uri uri = intent.getData();
    new AsynkTask().execute(uri);
}

    }

But it seems incorrect that the onnewintent method is called twice for some unknown reason

Solution

Intent intent = new Intent(WebTestActivity.this,MainActivity.class);

Intent intent = new Intent(WebTestActivity.this,MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);                  
intent.putExtra("url",url);
startActivity(intent)

In mainactivity;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
    String url = extras.getString(url);

}

You can then parse the URL and use URI In this way, the method will not be called twice
