Install Home Screen Widgets Progrommaticly
I have main activity window in my app, which displays three icons on it, also there are 3 home screen widgets in this application. is there a possibility for long press on one of
Solution 1:
The user will have to manually install the app widget. Since widgets need to be positioned -- and so users do not have app widgets forced upon them -- users must choose to add it to their home screen.
Solution 2:
In Android O, its possible to set app widget programmatically.
AppWidgetManager mAppWidgetManager =
context.getSystemService(AppWidgetManager.class);
AppWidgetProviderInfo myWidgetProviderInfo = new AppWidgetProviderInfo();
ComponentName myProvider = myWidgetProviderInfo.provider;
if (mAppWidgetManager.isRequestPinAppWidgetSupported()) {
// Create the PendingIntent object only if your app needs to be notified
// that the user allowed the widget to be pinned. Note that, if the pinning
// operation fails, your app isn't notified.
Intent pinnedWidgetCallbackIntent = new Intent( ... );
// Configure the intent so that your app's broadcast receiver gets
// the callback successfully. This callback receives the ID of the
// newly-pinned widget (EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID).
PendingIntent successCallback = PendingIntent.createBroadcast(context, 0,
pinnedWidgetCallbackIntent);
mAppWidgetManager.requestPinAppWidget(myProvider, null,
successCallback.getIntentSender());
}
