Handling buttons inside android notifications
I found out that I had to register "switchButtonListener" in AndroidManifest.xml
<receiver android:name="SettingsActivity$switchButtonListener" />
Source: Android Activity with no GUI
Later I found out that I can also use code like this to achieve the same thing without modifying the manifest.
switchButtonListener = new SwitchButtonListener();registerReceiver(switchButtonListener, new IntentFilter(SWITCH_EVENT));
.
public class switchButtonListener extends BroadcastReceiver {@Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { Log.d("TAG", "test"); }}
.
Intent switchIntent = new Intent(LangService.SWITCH_EVENT);PendingIntent pendingSwitchIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, switchIntent, 0);notificationView.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.buttonswitch, pendingSwitchIntent);
Note that this way I can declare the switchButtonListener class without the static attribute (if not static, it would crash in the previous example) giving me much more flexibility.
Don't forget to call unregisterReceiver() later.
