I followed the tutorial off code.google.com to add widgets to your
app. For some reason, when I run the app on the phone for testing,
then long click the home screen to add widgets, my widget is not an
option. I imagine I am doing something wrong, but I thought I followed
the tutorial pretty well. Here is some of my code, please offer a
suggestion of why I can't add my widget. BTW i dont care that it
doesnt do anything yet, or even if it breaks, I just want to see it as
an option first (small steps). Thanks for any help or feedback
Any * you see, is just a place holder for the real name.
My widget provider
public class * extends AppWidgetProvider {
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager
appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds) {
final int N = appWidgetIds.length;
// Perform this loop procedure for each App Widget that
belongs to this provider
for (int i=0; i<N; i++) {
int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i];
// Create an Intent to launch ExampleActivity
Intent intent = new Intent(context, MobileApp.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity
(context, 0, intent, 0);
// Get the layout for the App Widget and attach an on-
click listener to the button
RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName
(), R.layout.widget);
views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.widget_next_label,
pendingIntent);
// Tell the AppWidgetManager to perform an update on the
current App Widget
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, views);
}
}
}
