I have a Service
from where I send a broadcast intent
to a BroadcastReceiver
and then this broadcast receiver sends it back to a BroadcastReceiver
specified inside the Service
.
Here's the code:
private Notification getNotificationAU() {
mBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(getBaseContext())
.setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.app_icon_1)
.setContentTitle("title")
.setContentText(***);
// for action button
Intent actionIntent = new Intent(getBaseContext(), BroadcastSender.class);
PendingIntent actionPendingIntent = PendingIntent
.getBroadcast(getBaseContext(),
0, actionIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
mBuilder.setAutoCancel(true);
mBuilder.addAction(***, "***", actionPendingIntent);
return mBuilder.build();
}
Here's BroadcastSender.class
code:
public class BroadcastSender extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Broadcast Received by BroadcastSender", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// send back to your class
Intent newIntent = new Intent();
newIntent.setAction(context.getString(R.string.broadcast_id));
context.sendBroadcast(newIntent);
context.sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS));
Toast.makeText(context, "Broadcast sent back.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
both the Toasts
above is getting shown.
Here's BroadcastReceiver
inside the Service
:
public class MyBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
public MyBroadcastReceiver(){
super();
}
@Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Toast.makeText(context, "onReceive() in service called", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
if (intent.getAction() != null && intent.getAction().equals(getString(R.string.broadcast_id_2))) {
...
...
...
} else if (intent.getAction() != null && intent.getAction().equals(getString(R.string.broadcast_id))) {
// perform the task
} else {
Toast.makeText(context, "Intent is null.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
Here's the strings.xml
:
<string name="broadcast_id">***</string>
Here's AndroidManifest.xml
:
<receiver android:name=".BroadcastSender"/>
The problem is that MyBroadcastReceiver
is not receiving any broadcast even when both have same broadcast id R.string.broadcast_id
.
Why it isn't receiving the broadcast sent by BroadcastSender.class
?
Please let me know.
The problem here was not adding the line
myIntentFilter.addAction(getString(R.string.broadcast_id));
while registering theBroadcastReceiver
.It got solved after adding the line.
Thanks to Jitesh Mohite and Hasif Seyd for helping me finding out this small but crucial mistake.
