addEventListner does not get called back

[yannolaf]

I am trying to use this plugin to receive android broadcast intents. I register for the broadcast event

      window.broadcaster.addEventListener("com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT", function (e) { 
             console.log("com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT received."); 
        });
       console.log("com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT registered");

but if the intent gets fired

    V/ActivityManager(  775): Broadcast: Intent { act=com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT flg=0x10 (has extras) } ordered=false userid=0 callerApp=ProcessRecord{1418277c 775:system/1000}

the callback does not get triggered.

The only log message is

com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT registered

do I have to add anything to the Android Manifest file?

how to send message from native code?

LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).sendBroadcastSync(intent);

Keep in mind that the plugin registers the handler using

LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(super.webView.getContext()).registerReceiver(receiver,filter);

The broadcast is send from an other application. Is received by my application see ActivityManager log.

Is there a working sample application where I can take a look?

[bsorrentino]

Currently the plugin doesn't manage external broadcast events but only the local ones

Probably solution could be handle the external event in android and then fire it up to javascript

take a look here

As soon as possible I'll provide you an example on that

[bsorrentino]

Try this and let me know

manifest

 <application
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <receiver android:name="MyReceiver" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT" >
                    </action>
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
    </application>

Receiver

public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
                 LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcastSync(intent);
    }
}
