Remove push from notificationcenter after app has been opened

When I send out a PUSH notification to my app, it stays in the notification center in iOS 5. How can I remove the notification from the notification center from within the app?

Clearing the badge clears the notifications from the notification center.

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application {
   // Clear application badge when app launches
   [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setApplicationIconBadgeNumber:0];
}

This only works if the number changes. So to make it work in case badge is already zero, set it to some value and clear it again after a delay.

- (void)applicationWillEnterForeground:(UIApplication *)application {
    if([[UIApplication sharedApplication] applicationIconBadgeNumber] == 0)
       [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setApplicationIconBadgeNumber:1];
}

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application {
   // Clear application badge when app launches
   [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setApplicationIconBadgeNumber:0];
}

Doesn't work if you set and clear in the same method.

It is not possible to remove the notification from the notification center from within the app because in iOS5, notifications properties are displayed by apps, in :

Settings -> Notifications -> The app -> Notification Center (YES/NO).
