My MainActicity
starts RefreshService
with a Intent
which has a boolean
extra called isNextWeek
.
My RefreshService
makes a Notification
which starts my MainActivity
when the user clicks on it.
this looks like this:
Log.d("Refresh", "RefreshService got: isNextWeek: " + String.valueOf(isNextWeek));
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
notificationIntent.putExtra(MainActivity.IS_NEXT_WEEK, isNextWeek);
Log.d("Refresh", "RefreshService put in Intent: isNextWeek: " + String.valueOf(notificationIntent.getBooleanExtra(MainActivity.IS_NEXT_WEEK,false)));
pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);
builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this).setContentTitle("Title").setContentText("ContentText").setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_notification).setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
notification = builder.build();
// Hide the notification after its selected
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notificationManager.notify(NOTIFICATION_REFRESH, notification);
As you can see the notificationIntent
should have the boolean
extra IS_NEXT_WEEK
with the value of isNextWeek
which is put in the PendingIntent
.
When I click now this Notification
I always get false
as value of isNextWeek
This is the way I get the value in the MainActivity
:
isNextWeek = getIntent().getBooleanExtra(IS_NEXT_WEEK, false);

08-04 00:19:41.990 13367-13367/de.MayerhoferSimon.Vertretungsplan D/Refresh: MainActivity.onCreate got: isNextWeek: false
When I directly start the MainActivity
with an Intent
with the ìsNextValue` like this:
Intent i = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
i.putExtra(IS_NEXT_WEEK, isNextWeek);
finish();
startActivity(i);
everything works fine and I get true
when isNextWeek
is true
.
What do I make wrong that there is always a false
value?

Quote:
My suspicion is that, since the only thing changing in the Intent is the extras, the
PendingIntent.getActivity(...)
factory method is simply re-using the old intent as an optimization.In RefreshService, try:
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
