How permission can be checked at runtime without throwing SecurityException?
You can use Context.checkCallingorSelfPermission() function for this. Here is an example:
private boolean checkWriteExternalPermission(){ String permission = android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE; int res = getContext().checkCallingOrSelfPermission(permission); return (res == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED); }
This is another solution as well
PackageManager pm = context.getPackageManager();int hasPerm = pm.checkPermission( android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, context.getPackageName());if (hasPerm != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) { // do stuff}
You can also use this:
private boolean doesUserHavePermission(){ int result = context.checkCallingOrSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE); return result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED;}
