Get list of active PendingIntents in AlarmManager

Question

I there a way to view for debug purpose a list of the active PendingIntents in a device?

I am starting to work with AlarmManager and I like to see if my PendingIntents are created and removed correctly.

It would also be nice to see what other PendingIntents are there, just as a curiosity to see if some app is doing some "extra work".

adb shell dumpsys alarm > dump.txt

dump.txt:

adb shell dumpsys alarm > dump.txt is the way to go and you don't need root permission for that. But what you get from above could be very confusing to understand. In order to understand that dump completely you should check out morphatic's answer here.
