I have two values in my Database:
Hour = 10
Minute = 20
EDIT:
By Recursive I dont mean that the alarm is being set for tomorrow and hence forth, the onReceive of my Alarm class is getting called recursively.
I have the following function to set and Alarm using the above values from Database.
public void SetAlarm(Context context){
retrieve(context); // returns the hour, minute and day value.
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
Calendar calendarNow = Calendar.getInstance();
calendarNow.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis()); //Now calendar
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, Integer.valueOf(timeOneHour));
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE,Integer.valueOf(timeOneMinute) );
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 00);
if(calendar.after(calendarNow)){
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, (calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)));
}else{
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, (calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH+1)));
}
AlarmManager am=(AlarmManager)context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent i = new Intent(context, NotificationsEngine.class);
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, i, 0);
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,calendar.getTimeInMillis(), 1000*60*60*24, pi);
}
What I simply want is to set an alarm for today if the time (10:20 - this can be changed by the user but right now I am finding problems with this time in particular) has not passed - else set the alarm for tomorrow at the same time.
I first register this alarm in the Mainactivity - which is the start of my application ( I do check if the alarm is already set or not - so that I dont repeat. Then I register the alarm once again after executing my code in service which is invoked by this alarm.
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
context.startService(new Intent(context, NotificationService.class));
}
in the Service(After I execute the code which I intend to be executed by this alarm:
notifEngine.SetAlarm(getApplicationContext());
This issue was not happening till 2014. I presume change in year has triggered something bad!
Edit:
On debugging the following lines seem to be the culprit:
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, (calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH+1)));
System.out.println("On Day"+calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
The System.out prints 2 to the console, which ideally should print 3 - I might be wrong here but I think something is wrong here.
So I think I have zeroed down on the issue:
System.out.println("On Day before adding: "+calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
calendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, (calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH+1)));
System.out.println("On Day after adding: "+calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
Both the above print commands give an output of 2.
