Ok so I finally got setup to register devices for push notifications. I found this code to receive new notifications and display it. Thing is I'm not sure where it goes. I'm pretty new to Android programming so any help is appreciated. I have a service class called GCMService below.
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;
import com.google.android.gcm.GCMBaseIntentService;
public class GCMService extends GCMBaseIntentService {
private static final String TAG = "GCMService";
public GCMService() {
super();
}
@Override
protected void onRegistered(Context context, String regId) {
Log.i(TAG, "Device registered: regId= " + regId);
}
@Override
protected void onUnregistered(Context context, String regId) {
Log.i(TAG, "Device unregistered");
}
@Override
protected void onMessage(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.i(TAG, "Received message");
}
@Override
public void onError(Context context, String errorId) {
Log.i(TAG, "Received error: " + errorId);
}
@Override
protected boolean onRecoverableError(Context context, String errorId) {
Log.i(TAG, "Received recoverable error: " + errorId);
return super.onRecoverableError(context, errorId);
}
}
Where does the function below go in relation to my class above to receive a new message?
private static void generateNotification(Context context, String message) {
int icon = R.drawable.ic_launcher;
long when = System.currentTimeMillis();
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Notification notification = new Notification(icon, message, when);
String title = context.getString(R.string.app_name);
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(context, LauncherActivity.class);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent,
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, title, message, intent);
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;
notificationManager.notify(1, notification);
}
