I am trying to use a sendOrderedBroadcast in my Android app.
I want to be able to send the Intent from one of my applications to another and I then want to get data back from the Application that recieves the Intent, in this case a boolean true or false.
Here is the current code:
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setAction(GlobalData.PROPOSE_IN_DOMAIN_ROAM_INTENT);
i.putExtra("com.testnetworks.QCLEVEL", aProposedTheoreticalQoSLevel);
sendOrderedBroadcast(i, null, null, null, Activity.RESULT_OK, null, null);
Is this the correct way to achieve what I want?
If so what do I use as the resultReceiver* parameter? (3rd parameter)
And then how to I recieve data back from the Broadcast?
I have done a quick google and not come up with any examples, any help or examples greatly appreciated.
UPDATED CODE:
sendOrderedBroadcast(i, null, domainBroadcast, null, Activity.RESULT_OK, null, null);
class DomainBroadcast extends BroadcastReceiver{
@Override
public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
if(GlobalData.PROPOSE_IN_DOMAIN_ROAM_INTENT.equals(action)){
Log.d("BROADCAST", "Returning broadcast");
Bundle b = intent.getExtras();
Log.d("BROADCAST", "Returning broadcast " +
b.getInt("com.testnetworks.INT_TEST"));
}
}
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
if(GlobalData.PROPOSE_IN_DOMAIN_ROAM_INTENT.equals(action)){
Bundle b = intent.getExtras();
int testQCLevel = b.getInt("com.testnetworks.QCLEVEL");
switch(testQCLevel){
case 1:
Log.d("QCLevel ", "QCLevel = UNAVAILABLE");
break;
case 2:
Log.d("QCLevel ", "QCLevel = BELOWUSABILITY");
break;
case 3:
Log.d("QCLevel ", "QCLevel = VOICE");
break;
}
intent.putExtra("com.testnetworks.INT_TEST", 100);
}
So according to the Doc's I should recieve 100 back in my DomainBroadcast reciever but it always comes back as 0.
Can anyone see why?
*resultReceiver - Your own BroadcastReceiver to treat as the final receiver of the broadcast.
