API Revision: change ExtensionData.clickIntent(Intent) to clickIntent(PendingIntent) #52

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Having the API take a PendingIntent rather than an Intent allows the extension 
developer to determine whether it should be an Activity, Service, or Broadcast 
PendingIntent. This is important for extensions that may not need or want to 
unlock the device when clicked (e.g. a toggle).

This is currently not possible because the expanded view, which uses a 
ListView, can't supply different pending intents for each extension. The only 
solution AFAICT is to not use a ListView and instead use a LinearLayout in a 
ScrollView in the expanded widget layout.

I can consider this for a future update, thanks!

Could that single PendingIntent be a broadcast PI and then proxy out to the 
final Intent? It might mean adding another field to ExtensionData to determine 
its launch mode.

No, because the lock screen treats PendingIntent.getActivity differently from 
PendingIntent.getBroadcast. In the original codebase we used broadcasts but 
this led to very undesirable lockscreen behavior.

I don't think ScrollView is remotable, so I'm not sure how that would work.

Ah, dang, you're right :( I forgot about that.

With PendingIntent we could use TaskStackBuilder 
(https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/TaskStackBuilder.html) to 
launch a whole Task of Activities.
And I need this feature for my extension ...
