LocalBroadcastManager does not have custom PushAnalyticsReceiver

[akvashi]

On a Pixel 2 with Android 8.0

When trying to use a custom PushAnalyticsReceiver, the Receiver is declared in the Manifest according to the documentation.

This code is called

List<ResolveInfo> result = mContext.getPackageManager().queryBroadcastReceivers(intent, 0);
        if (result != null && result.size() > 0) {
            LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(mContext).sendBroadcast(intent);
        }

results will have a size > 0 because the BroadcastReceiver is declared.

But sendBroadcast(intent) will not work because within that method

ArrayList<LocalBroadcastManager.ReceiverRecord> entries = (ArrayList)this.mActions.get(intent.getAction());

if(entries != null) {...}

is called but the entries are null because

LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(mContext).registerReceiver is not called.

So LocalBroadcastManager has no knowledge of the larger BroadcastReceiver query.

Also tested on an emulator at API 19. Same results.

custom PushAnalyticsReceiver does not work.

Hey @akvashi thanks for the report - we're looking into a solution here and will likely release an SDK update to address.
