Okay, I found out what I believe to be the proper way to format The
external type (It is stored as a uri) but it doesn't seem to want to work.
This is how I set up the Foreground Dispatch for my tag:
mPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(this,
getClass()).addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP), 0);
IntentFilter ndef = new
IntentFilter(NfcAdapter.ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED);
try{
ndef.addDataType("vnd.android.nfc://ext/example.com:a");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
throw new RuntimeException("fail", e);
}
Does anyone know if ndef.addDataType is the proper method to use to add a
uri? I haven't found any examples of filtering based on any other Ndef type
other than MIME. Using other apps, it detects the type of my card just
fine, but I am unsure about how to format the Foreground Dispatch.
Also, when I was trying to start up using a MIME filter for Foreground
Dispatch, I noticed that my app was always competing with other apps to
start, and this was with a very specific MIME filter. After the first time
I chose it, the app would start up when ever I selected the card with the
app off, but until then others would compete with it. Does a specific MIME
type trump the wild card "*/*" or if other apps use the wild card will it
always compete with a custom app?
Thanks to anyone who can help!
