I am trying to make a simple
widget that will play a movie from the sdcard when clicked on. This seems simple enough, and by following tutorials I've come up with the following code, but it seems the onclick is never setup.
Manifest:
<receiver android:name="WidgetProvider" android:label="DVD Cover">
<intent-filter>
<action
android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE"/>
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.appwidget.provider"
android:resource="@xml/appwidget_info_2x4"/>
</receiver>
Layout (widget.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/holder"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#ff777777"
>
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/cover"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:textColor="#000000"
/>
</LinearLayout>
appwidget.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appwidget-provider xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:minWidth="200dip"
android:minHeight="300dip"
android:updatePeriodMillis="180000"
android:initialLayout="@layout/widget"
>
</appwidget-provider>
WidgetProvider.java:
public class WidgetProvider extends AppWidgetProvider {
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds) {
String movieurl = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + "/Movie.mp4";
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
notificationIntent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(movieurl), "video/*");
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, notificationIntent,0);
// Get the layout for the App
Widget and attach an on-click listener
// to the button
RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget);
views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.holder, contentIntent);
// Tell the AppWidgetManager to perform an update on the current app
widget
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetIds, views);
}
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh
