Can Activity.getIntent() ever return null?
<p>Can <a href="https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html#getIntent()"><code>Activity.getIntent()</code></a> ever return <code>null</code>?</p>

<p>The documentation does not mention this as a possibility, so I am wondering if I have to check the result of <code>getIntent()</code> for <code>null</code> value before dereferencing it.</p>
