I manage to reach the source code, this is what getBroadcast() does:
IIntentSender target = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault().getIntentSender(
IActivityManager.INTENT_SENDER_BROADCAST,
packageName,
null,
null,
requestCode,
intent,
resolvedType,
flags
);
return target != null ? new PendingIntent(target) : null;
I read also the code within ActivityManager. That will be a new
reference every time is invoked. Objects could be differents
references but the IntentSender could be the same if I understood the
code correctly.
I was wrong on the references.
Cheers,
