Is there a way to determine whether a particular home screen shortcut exists? Or is there a way to silence the Toast messages that appear when a home screen shortcut is installed and uninstalled?
My application installs a shortcut on the home screen at device startup time under certain conditions and I don't want duplicate shortcuts to appear. I also don't want Toast messages appearing saying "Shortcut created" or "Shortcut already exists" every single time the device boots. I've found an undocumented Intent Extra called EXTRA_SHORTCUT_DUPLICATE which will prevent duplicate shortcuts from being installed but the Launcher still displays the "Shortcut already exists" Toast message. I'd rather not rely on this undocumented Intent Extra if there is a supported technique for this.
