I am writing an Android application which can enable and disable the Network Data packet connection. I am also using one broadcast
receiver to check the Network Data packet connection. I have registered broadcast
receiver and provided required permission in Manifest file. But when I run this application it changes the connection state and after that it crashes. But when I don't include this broadcast
receiver it works fine. I am not able to see any kind of log which can provide some clue.
Here is my code for broadcast
receiver.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.rakesh.simplewidget"
android:versionCode="1"

<!-- Permissions -->

My Broadcast
receiver class is as following.
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.ConnectivityManager;
import android.net.NetworkInfo;
import android.util.Log;
public class ConnectivityReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
NetworkInfo info = (NetworkInfo)intent.getParcelableExtra(ConnectivityManager.EXTRA_NETWORK_INFO);
if(info.getType() == ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE){
if(info.isConnectedOrConnecting()){
Log.e("RK","Mobile data is connected");
}else{
Log.e("RK","Mobile data is disconnected");
}
}
}
}

It seems Android is not able to recognize file Broadcast
Receiver class. Any idea why I am getting this error?
PS: Some information about Android environment and platform.
- Android API 10.
- Running on Samsung Galaxy II which has android 2.3.6
Edit:
my broadcast
receiver file ConnectivityReceiver.java was present in default package and it was not being recognized by Android. Android was looking for this file in current package i.e com.rakesh.simplewidget; I just moved connectivityReciever.java file to com.rakesh.simplewidget package and problem was solved.
