Hi Paul,
Bit more progress from "java.lang.SecurityException" ...
I added Autheticator service code to Android "AndroidManifest.xml".
Here is the piece of code:-
<service android:name="AccountAuthenticatorService"
android:exported="true"
android:process=":auth">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.accounts.AccountAuthenticator" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.accounts.AccountAuthenticator"
android:resource="@xml/authenticator"
/>
</service>
Here are my xml files:-
<!-- authenticator.xml -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<account-authenticator xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/
apk/res/android"
android:accountType="com.google"
android:icon="@drawable/icon"
android:smallIcon="@drawable/icon"
android:label="app_name"
android:accountPreferences="@xml/
account_preferences"
/>
AND
<!-- account_preferences.xml -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";>
<PreferenceCategory
android:title="General Settings" />
<PreferenceScreen
android:key="account_settings"
android:title="Account Settings"
android:summary="Sync frequency, notifications, etc.">
<intent
android:action="account_settings.ACTION"
android:targetPackage="account_settings.package"
android:targetClass="account_settings.class"
/>
</PreferenceScreen>
</PreferenceScreen>
Now I am getting "NullPointerException" and there is no stacktrace or
inner message, both are null.
Please let me know if I am missing anything.
Thanks,
-Rajendra.
