Hello,
I am overriding onReceive() in my subclassed AppWidgetProvider. My
home screen widget works fine with a periodic update. I would like to
have a click on the widget cause the widget to update.
When building the RemoteView, I set a PendingIntent as follows:
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity
(
context,
0, // no requestCode
new Intent
(AppWidgetManager.ACTION_APPWIDGET_UPDATE),
0 // no flags
);
updateViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.widget,
pendingIntent);
Earlier I had established that the PendingIntent was functional when
using ACTION_VIEW and a web url for the data URI; clicking the widget
launched the browser. My manifest has this broadcast receiver:
<receiver android:name=".widget.CharacterWidget"
android:label="@string/widget_name">
<intent-filter>
<action
android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider"
android:resource="@xml/widget_character" />
</receiver>
However, the onReceive() method in my AppWidgetProvider never gets
called, although I see the following message in my LogCat:
Starting activity: Intent
{ act=android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE }
What do I need to change to get this to work?
