I have created a new project focusing on that problem.
Now the PendingIntent.getBroadcast() method doesn't try to start an
activity any longer.
But the problem that the LocationManager doesn't fire the intent still
consists. I have a Activity that creates a PendingIntent and calls the
addProximityAlert() method. The BroadcastReceiver should only log the
incomming events. The only event that appears is the broadcast I send
by my self (sendBroadcast(intent);)
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
private static final String PROXIMITY_ALERT =
"de.pengingintent.Activity.PROXIMITY_ALERT";
private static final String TAG = "MyActivity";
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Intent intent = new Intent(PROXIMITY_ALERT);
PendingIntent pintent =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), 0, intent, 0);
// just to test if the broadcast receiver exists
Log.d(TAG, "testing broadcast receiver");
sendBroadcast(intent);
LocationManager lm =
(LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
lm.addProximityAlert(1, 1, 200, 20000, pintent);
}
}
public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private static final String TAG = "MyReceiver";
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.d(TAG, "received new intent");
if(intent.getAction() != null)
Log.d(TAG, intent.getAction());
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
if(extras != null) {
if(extras.containsKey(LocationManager.KEY_PROXIMITY_ENTERING)) {
Log.d(TAG,
LocationManager.KEY_PROXIMITY_ENTERING + " is: " +
Boolean
.toString(extras.getBoolean(LocationManager.KEY_PROXIMITY_ENTERING)));
}
}
}
}
The latitude and longitute I registerd for is 1, 1 and on the terminal
I run the "geo" command multiple times:
geo fix 3 3
geo fix 1 1
...
What am I doing wrong?
