So I was playing around with some sample code I found on the net for
receiving SMS in your app when I noticed that the sample was using the
deprecated android.telephony.gsm.SmsMessage. I figured it'd be a
simple change to make it use android.telephony.SmsMessage instead so I
changed the import and everything compiled just fine.
However, when I ran the app, it crashed when an SMS was received.
After playing around with it for quite a while I can not seem to
figure out why it doesn't work with the changed import.
Here's the code in question (not my code, it was in a sample online,
but I don't have the URL):
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
Object messages[] = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
SmsMessage smsMessage[] = new SmsMessage[messages.length];
for (int n = 0; n < messages.length; n++) {
smsMessage[n] = SmsMessage.createFromPdu((byte[]) messages
[n]);
}
// show first message
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context,
"Received SMS:" + smsMessage[0].getDisplayOriginatingAddress
(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
}
One bit I did notice was that the non-deprecated SmsMessage class does
not have a public constructor, which seemed to give the creation of
the SmsMessage array some problems. However, even after removing
everything except the SmsMessage.createFromPdu line the app was still
crashing.
Does anyone have any insight into what's different between the two
SmsMessage classes that is causing this?
Thanks!
