NotificationCompatSideChannelService

Class Overview

Abstract service to receive side channel notifications sent from NotificationManagerCompat.

To receive side channel notifications, extend this service and register it in your android manifest with an intent filter for the BIND_NOTIFICATION_SIDE_CHANNEL action. Note: you must also have an enabled NotificationListenerService within your package.

Example AndroidManifest.xml addition:

 <service android:name="com.example.NotificationSideChannelService">
     <intent-filter>
         <action android:name="android.support.BIND_NOTIFICATION_SIDE_CHANNEL" />
     </intent-filter>
 </service>

From class android.app.Service int START_CONTINUATION_MASK Bits returned by onStartCommand(Intent, int, int) describing how to continue the service if it is killed. int START_FLAG_REDELIVERY This flag is set in onStartCommand(Intent, int, int) if the Intent is a re-delivery of a previously delivered intent, because the service had previously returned START_REDELIVER_INTENT but had been killed before calling stopSelf(int) for that Intent. int START_FLAG_RETRY This flag is set in onStartCommand(Intent, int, int) if the Intent is a retry because the original attempt never got to or returned from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int). int START_NOT_STICKY Constant to return from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int): if this service's process is killed while it is started (after returning from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int)), and there are no new start intents to deliver to it, then take the service out of the started state and don't recreate until a future explicit call to Context.startService(Intent). int START_REDELIVER_INTENT Constant to return from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int): if this service's process is killed while it is started (after returning from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int)), then it will be scheduled for a restart and the last delivered Intent re-delivered to it again via onStartCommand(Intent, int, int). int START_STICKY Constant to return from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int): if this service's process is killed while it is started (after returning from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int)), then leave it in the started state but don't retain this delivered intent. int START_STICKY_COMPATIBILITY Constant to return from onStartCommand(Intent, int, int): compatibility version of START_STICKY that does not guarantee that onStartCommand(Intent, int, int) will be called again after being killed.
