MusicPlayer Pause and Start from it the start

Question

I am developing music application .

I want to pause the player and when I go for resume it will start it from the that point.

Music.java

public class Music {

    private static MediaPlayer mp = null;

    public static void play(Context context,int resource){
        stop(context);
        mp = MediaPlayer.create(context, resource);
        mp.setLooping(true);
        mp.start();
    }

    static void stop(Context context) {
        if(mp != null){
            mp.stop();
            mp.release();
            mp = null;
        }
    }
}

SMusicActivity

public class SMusicActivity extends Activity {

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

        Button btnplay = (Button)findViewById(R.id.play);
        btnplay.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                onResume();
            }
        });

        Button btnstop = (Button)findViewById(R.id.pause);
        btnstop.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                onPause();
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        Music.play(this,R.raw.govind_bolo);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        Music.stop(this);
    }
}

I want to use stop button as Pause and play . I did coding for it but as you know I didn't get perfect one ..So How can I make operation like Play and Pause into this.

Get rid of your static Music Facade. Use a real MediaPlayer in your activity and

instanciate it only once (onCreate)
put it to play and pause when buttons are clicked
check with mediaPlayer.isPlaying() that you can actually play or pause the player. There is a state diagram to respect when using this object, see the javadoc for further details of states and allowed transitions from specific states.

Create a local variable like "private int currentPosition", then use the following:

    btnplay.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            mp.seekTo(currentPosition);
            onResume();
        }
    });

    Button btnstop = (Button)findViewById(R.id.pause);
    btnstop.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
        currentPosition = mp.getCurrentPosition();
            onPause();
        }
    });

MusicPlayer Pause and Start from it the start
