Hello, I have been trying to implement an application that uses the ACTION_APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE action to configure an app when it is first installed.
I have been using the discussion at http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html#Configuring as a reference to accomplish this. The problem is that the onStart() process of the configuration activity does not ever receive an ACTION_APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE. In other words the code snippet below always executes finish () because it is not a CONFIGURE action being processed. Is there a very simple app that demonstrates receiving an ACTION event, or is there an obvious problem with what I am doing? Thanks, Chris Newton ---------------- CODE SNIPPET ----------------------------- public class TestConfigure extends Activity { int appWidgetId = AppWidgetManager.INVALID_APPWIDGET_ID; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); // cause the widget host to cancel out of the widget placement if the back button is pressed. setResult(RESULT_CANCELED); Intent intent = getIntent(); Bundle extras = intent.getExtras(); if (extras != null) { appWidgetId = extras.getInt(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID, AppWidgetManager.INVALID_APPWIDGET_ID); } // If they gave us an intent without the widget id, just bail. if (appWidgetId == AppWidgetManager.INVALID_APPWIDGET_ID) { finish(); } } } ---------------- AndroidManifest.xml --------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; package="com.darfield.test" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0"> <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/ app_name"> <receiver android:name="TestWidget" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" /> </intent-filter> <meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/test_info" /> </receiver> <activity android:name=".TestConfigure" android:label="@string/app_name"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE"/> </intent-filter> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> </application> </manifest> ---------------------- test_info.xml ------------------------------------------ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <appwidget-provider xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:minWidth="294dp" android:minHeight="72dp" android:updatePeriodMillis="86400000" android:initialLayout="@layout/main" android:configure="com.darfield.test.TestConfigure" > </appwidget-provider> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
