How do you use Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP to clear the Activity Stack?

by

I have started Activity A->B->C->D.
When the back button is pressed on Activity D I want to go to Activity A. Since A is my starting point and therefore already on the stack all the activities in top of A is cleared and you can’t go back to any other Activity from A.

This actually works in my code:

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
        Intent a = new Intent(this,A.class);
        a.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
        startActivity(a);
        return true;
    }
    return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
