getSdlEnabledApps( Context context, String myPackageName )

Get all SDL enabled apps. If the package name is null, it will return all apps. However, if the package name is included, the resulting hash map will not include the app with that package name.

public static java.util.HashMap getSdlEnabledApps(Context context,String myPackageName)

Method Parameters

context

a context object used to get an instance of the package manager

myPackageName

the package of the requesting app. This should only be included if the app wants to exclude itself from the map

querySdlAppInfo( Context context, java.util.Comparator<com.smartdevicelink.util.SdlAppInfo> comparator )

Deprecated
Finds all SDL apps via their SdlRouterService manifest entry. It will return the metadata associated with that router service.

public static java.util.List querySdlAppInfo(Context context,java.util.Comparator<com.smartdevicelink.util.SdlAppInfo> comparator)

Method Parameters

context

a context instance to obtain the package manager

comparator

the Comparator to sort the resulting list. If null is supplied, they will be returned as they are from the system

querySdlAppInfo( Context context, java.util.Comparator<com.smartdevicelink.util.SdlAppInfo> comparator, VehicleType type )

Finds all SDL apps via their SdlRouterService manifest entry. It will return the metadata associated with that router service.

public static java.util.List querySdlAppInfo(Context context,java.util.Comparator<com.smartdevicelink.util.SdlAppInfo> comparator,VehicleType type)

Method Parameters

context

a context instance to obtain the package manager

the Comparator to sort the resulting list. If null is supplied, they will be returned as they are from the system

type

isPermissionGranted( String permissionName, Context context, String servicePackageName )

public static boolean isPermissionGranted(String permissionName,Context context,String servicePackageName)

Method Parameters

permissionName

servicePackageName

sendExplicitBroadcast( Context context, Intent intent, java.util.List<android.content.pm.ResolveInfo> apps )

Sends the provided intent to the specified destinations making it an explicit intent, rather than an implicit intent. A direct replacement of sendBroadcast(Intent). As of Android 8.0 (API 26+) implicit broadcasts are no longer sent to broadcast receivers that are declared via the AndroidManifest. If no apps are found to receive the intent, this method will send the broadcast implicitly if no list of apps is provided.

public static void sendExplicitBroadcast(Context context,Intent intent,java.util.List<android.content.pm.ResolveInfo> apps)

Method Parameters

context

intent

- the intent to send explicitly

apps

- the list of apps that this broadcast will be sent to. If null is passed in the intent will be sent to all apps that match the provided intent via a query to the package manager; it will also be sent implicitly to mimic sendBroadcast()'s original functionality.

isUSBCableConnected( Context context )

Checks if the usb cable is physically connected or not Note: the intent here is a sticky intent so registerReceiver is actually a synchronous call and doesn't register a receiver on each call

public static boolean isUSBCableConnected(Context context)

Method Parameters

context

a context instance

downloadImage( String urlStr )

public static android.graphics.Bitmap downloadImage(String urlStr) throws java.io.IOException

Method Parameters

urlStr

Throws

• java.io.IOException

public static boolean isDebugMode(Context context)

Method Parameters
