I've been having some odd problems with permission in Android. I am trying to just get a list of the google calendars a particular user has, but first I need to let them pick the account.
I included this line in my manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS"></uses-permission>
However I get this error:
12-26 03:26:31.004 13841 13841 E AndroidRuntime: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{....}: java.lang.SecurityException: caller uid 10105 lacks any of android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
I had tried something similar with gaining access to the undocumented Calendar API with READ_CALENDAR
and WRITE_CALENDAR
, but I had similar exceptions (although probably for different reasons - I thought it might be worth mentioning in case it wasn't).
Please clue me in on what I'm doing wrong!
Thanks!
