After several tests, finally I can start an activity when an alert is fired. I have used the example code from openintents.
To achieve start an activity I have add into AndroidManifest.xml : <activity android:name="InformationClass" android:icon="@drawable/ icon" android:label="@string/app_name"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="net.mobilefight.trackbuilder.action.PROXIMITY_ALERT"> </action> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"> </category> </intent-filter> </activity> InformationClass is an activity. This activity is the one that I want to fire when the proximity alert is fired. The code that I have used into my Intent receiver class for start an activity is: class ProximityIntentReceiver extends IntentReceiver { @Override public void onReceiveIntent(Context context, Intent intent) { Intent i; String action = intent.getAction(); if (action.equals(PROXIMITY_ALERT)) { if (!alert_activated) { i = new Intent(); i.setAction(PROXIMITY_ALERT); i.addCategory(Intent.DEFAULT_CATEGORY); context.broadcastIntent(i); int receiverCount = context.getPackageManager().queryIntentReceivers(i, 0).size(); Log.i("TAG TRACKBUILDER : ", "receiver count:" + receiverCount); if (receiverCount == 0){ int activityCount = context.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(i, 0).size(); if (activityCount > 0) { alert_activated = true; Log.w("TAG TRACKBUILDER : ", "Activity found."); i.setLaunchFlags(Intent.NEW_TASK_LAUNCH); context.startActivity(i); } else { Log.w("TAG TRACKBUILDER : ", "no activity found"); } } else { Log.i("TAG TRACKBUILDER : ", "broadcast count:" + receiverCount); } } } } } With this code I have a problem, only work correctly the first time. I use a boolean variable to avoid that the activity be opened many times because while the GPS point is into the radius of the alert, It is fired and then a lot of applications are fired. There is some way to disable the alert when application has been launched and when exit from this application return to enable the alert? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
