Could I please get some further confirmation on how to handle intents with
using this library and subclassing everything in the manifest?
The classes in the library create intents, just as...
new Intent(this, MyActivity.class)
...however, that won't resolve as the manifest defines the activity as
my.package.MyActivity, but the intent created would be
my.package.library.MyActivity.
Instead, I've replace every instance of...
Intent i = new Intent(this, MyActivity.class)
...with...
Intent i = null;
try {
i = new Intent(context, Class.forName(this.getPackageName() + "." +
MyActivity.class.getSimpleName());
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
Log.e(TAG, e.getMessage());
}
This is required to make sure that the Intents match the full class path
declared in the manifest, rather than the class path of the library. In
testing, this appears to be true, but I wanted to check with those who
know! :)
Thank you very much!
Bryan
