preface
Broadcasts are registered in two ways: at manifest, also known as static registration, or at run time by calling the registerReceiver() method, also known as dynamic registration.
There are two different types of broadcast transmission according to the order of arrival: one is normal broadcast and the other is ordered broadcast.
The transmission of broadcast can also be divided into two different types according to whether or not the receiver is specified: one is explicit broadcast and the other is implicit broadcast.
Note: If our broadcast is only for internal application use, we can use local broadcast. This implementation is much more efficient (no interprocess communication is required), and there are no security concerns related to other applications being able to receive and send our broadcasts.
BroadcastReceiver life cycle
Life cycle: We send a broadcast through the component, and the system will automatically match the corresponding registered broadcast receiver and call the onReceiver() method of the broadcast receiver. After the onReceiver() method is run, the system will consider this broadcast receiver object is no longer an active object. I’m going to finished it.
The onReceiver() method cannot perform time-consuming operations because the BroadcastReceiver runs on the UI thread, otherwise the ANR(Application No Response) dialog will appear. Also do not start the thread in the onReceiver() method and then return from the function, because once it returns, the system will assume that the BroadcastReceiver is not active and therefore no longer needs its host process (unless the other application components in it are active). Therefore, the system may terminate the reclaimed memory of a process at any time, and doing so terminates spawned threads running in the process.
Is there a way to complete a time-consuming operation in BroadcastReceiver? There are two ways to do this:
1. CallgoAsync()Method,
Call goAsync onReceiver () the receiver () method and the BroadcastReceiver. PendingResult give a background thread. This keeps the broadcast active onReceive() after it returns. But even with this approach, the system expects you to be able to broadcast very quickly (less than 10 seconds). It runs you to move work to another thread to avoid blocking the main thread. The following is an example:
class IBroadcastReceiverTask : BroadcastReceiver() {
override fun onReceive(context: Context? , intent:Intent?). {
KLog.i("IBroadcastReceiverTask")
// Avoid jamming
val pendingResult = goAsync()
val task = Task(pendingResult, intent)
// Perform asynchronous tasks
task.execute()
}
private class Task(private val pendingResult:PendingResult,
private valintent: Intent? ) :AsyncTask<String,String,String>(){override fun doInBackground(vararg params: String?).: String {
KLog.i("doInBackground")
ssss()
return toString()
}
override fun onPostExecute(result: String?). {
super.onPostExecute(result)
// You must call Finish () for the BroadcastReceiver to be reclaimed
pendingResult.finish()
KLog.i("Completed time-consuming operation")}}}fun ssss(a){
var time = 30
do {
Thread.sleep(1000)
KLog.i(time)
time--
}while(time! =0)}Copy the codeAbove is an example of the first approach
2. Use the JobService
The JobScheduler JobService is used so that the system knows that there is active work to be done during the process. The following is an example:
class IBroadcastReceiverJobService: BroadcastReceiver() {
var JOB_TEST =10001
@RequiresApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
override fun onReceive(context: Context? , intent:Intent?). {
KLog.i("IBroadcastReceiverJobService")
valjobScheduler:JobScheduler = context? .getSystemService(Context.JOB_SCHEDULER_SERVICE)as JobScheduler
val jobInfo = JobInfo.Builder(JOB_TEST, ComponentName(context.packageName, MyJobService::class.java.getName()))
.setPeriodic(AlarmManager.INTERVAL_FIFTEEN_MINUTES)
.setPersisted(false)
.build()
jobScheduler.schedule(jobInfo)
KLog.i("IBroadcastReceiverJobService finish")}}@RequiresApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
class MyJobService : JobService() {override fun onStopJob(params: JobParameters?).: Boolean {
KLog.i("OnStopJob ===> End")
return false
}
override fun onStartJob(params: JobParameters?).: Boolean {
KLog.i("OnStartJob ===> Start")
object : AsyncTask<String, String, String>() {
override fun doInBackground(vararg params: String?).: String {
ssss()
return toString()
}
override fun onPostExecute(result: String?). {
super.onPostExecute(result)
KLog.i("OnPostExecute ===> Start")
this@MyJobService.jobFinished(params,false)
}
}.execute()
KLog.i("OnStartJob ===> End")
return false}}Copy the codeAndroid.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE: android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE: android.permission. The statement is as follows:
<service
android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"
android:name=".MyJobService"/>
Copy the codeJobService was added in Android 5.0 (API level 21).

Register in the manifest (static register)
Manifest registration: Also known as static registration, it declares a broadcast receiver in androidmanifest.xml. This type of broadcast can receive the corresponding broadcast before the application is started. How to register, as follows:
// Create a class that extends BroadcastReceiver
class IBroadcastReceiver1: BroadcastReceiver() {
override fun onReceive(context: Context? , intent:Intent?). {
KLog.i("onReceive ===> ${javaClass.simpleName}")
StringBuilder().apply {
append("Action: ${intent? .action}\n")
append("URI: ${intent? .toUri(Intent.URI_INTENT_SCHEME)}\n")
toString().also { log ->
KLog.d(TAG, log)
Toast.makeText(context, log, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
}
}
}
companion object {
private const val TAG = "IBroadcastReceiver1"}}Copy the codeClasses created with declarations in Androidmanifest.xml
<receiver android:name=".IBroadcastReceiver1" >
<intent-filter android:priority="666">
<action android:name="com.hugo.IBroadcastReceiver1"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
Copy the codeSo we registered a broadcast called IBroadcastReceiver1 through the manifest.
Dynamic registration
Dynamic registration: Registers broadcast receivers with context.registerReceiver () in a component such as a Service or Activity. Such broadcast receivers are registered by code after the application has been started. The following is an example:
// Create an action filter
val filter = IntentFilter()
// You can set multiple listening actions
filter.addAction(Constants.FILTER_NAME2)
// Set priority Value range -1000 to 1000 A larger value indicates a higher priority
filter.priority = 1000
// Register a broadcast listener
registerReceiver(IBroadcastReceiver2(),filter)
Copy the codeSo we dynamically register a broadcast receiver.
Note: The unregisterReceiver() method must be called to unregister the components that exit or close the broadcast registration. It is not easy to cause the broadcast receiver to leak.
Ordinary radio
Ordinary broadcasts are completely asynchronous and can be received (logically) by all receivers at the same time. The message delivery efficiency is relatively high, but the disadvantage is that the receiver cannot process the result to the next receiver and cannot terminate the delivery of the broadcast Intent. How do we send a broadcast? Here’s an example:
val intent = Intent()
// Set the broadcast action
intent.action = Constants.FILTER_NAME2
// Send a broadcastSendBroadcast (Intent) log iBroadcastReceiver2. kt: [(iBroadcastReceiver2. kt:16)#OnReceive ] onReceive ===> IBroadcastReceiver2
IBroadcastReceiver2.kt: [ (IBroadcastReceiver2.kt:21)#OnReceive ] Action: IBroadcastReceiver2
IBroadcastReceiver3.kt: [ (IBroadcastReceiver3.kt:16)#OnReceive ] onReceive ===> IBroadcastReceiver3
IBroadcastReceiver3.kt: [ (IBroadcastReceiver3.kt:24)#OnReceive ] Action: IBroadcastReceiver2
Copy the codeAs shown in the preceding example, the context.sendbroadcast () method is called to send a normal broadcast, as long as the broadcast receiver matches the action specified in the Intent.
Conclusion:
- Regardless of priority, dynamic broadcast receivers take precedence over static broadcast receivers.
- List registration: those scanned first take precedence over those scanned later;
- Dynamic registration: registration first takes precedence over registration later.
Orderly broadcast
Orderly broadcast: Broadcasts are received in sequence according to the priorities set by broadcast receivers when they register. A higher-priority receiver can modify the data or interrupt the broadcast according to different needs.
The value of priority ranges from -1000 to 1000. The default value is 0.
Send a broadcast as follows:
val intent = Intent()
intent.action = Constants.FILTER_NAME2
sendOrderedBroadcast(intent,nullIbroadcastreceiver2. kt: [(iBroadcastReceiver2. kt:17)#OnReceive ] onReceive ===> IBroadcastReceiver2
IBroadcastReceiver2.kt: [ (IBroadcastReceiver2.kt:25)#OnReceive ] Action: IBroadcastReceiver2
IBroadcastReceiver3.kt: [ (IBroadcastReceiver3.kt:16)#OnReceive ] onReceive ===> IBroadcastReceiver3
IBroadcastReceiver3.kt: [ (IBroadcastReceiver3.kt:18[(ibroadcastReceiver3.kt: ===> ibroadcastReceiver3.kt: ===> ibroadcastReceiver3.kt:25)#OnReceive ] Action: IBroadcastReceiver2
Copy the codeAs shown in the sample Send radio call Context, sendOrderedBroadcast () method, the system will according to the priority level of radio receivers in sequence, in front of the right to terminate the radio, so that the back of the receiver can not receive the radio, the radio can also send data to the back of the radio receiver.
The broadcast receiver calls abortBroadcast() to terminate the broadcast.
There are two methods used by broadcast receivers to send data back: setResultExtras() and setResult().
The broadcast receiver retrieves the previously sent data using the getResultExtras(true) method.
Note: all of the above methods are called in the onReceive() method.
Conclusion:
- Those with a higher priority are received first.
- Dynamic registration with the same priority takes precedence over static registration.
- Same priority same type of broadcast receiver, static registration: scan first takes precedence over scan later, dynamic registration: register first takes precedence over register later.
Local radio
Local broadcast: As the name implies, this broadcast is only useful within the application.
Local broadcast uses methods in the LocalBroadcastManager class:
- RegisterReceiver (): This is used to register broadcast receivers.
- SendBroadcast (): This is used to send broadcasts.
- SendBroadcastSync (): This is similar to the sendBroadcast() method, but if there are receivers for the Intent, the function will block and dispatch them immediately before returning.
- UnregisterReceiver (): This method is used to unregister.
That’s all for local broadcasting. The use method is basically the same as the previous introduction.
According to radio
Display broadcast: An Intent sent is a broadcast that displays an Intent, as specified by the name of the Intent component. It is typically used in an application where the name of the target component is known, the Intent is clear, and the receiver of the active broadcast is specified.
The following is an example:
val intent = Intent()
intent.setClass(this,IBroadcastReceiver1::class.java)
sendBroadcast(intent)
val intent = Intent(this,IBroadcastReceiver1::class.java)
sendBroadcast(intent)
val intent = Intent()
intent.setClassName(this,IBroadcastReceiver1::class.java.name)
sendBroadcast(intent)
// The internal implementation of the above three methods creates the ComponentName object and assigns it to Intent.component.ponent
val intent = Intent()
intent.component = ComponentName(this,IBroadcastReceiver1::class.java)
sendBroadcast(intent)
Copy the codeThis is how to use display broadcast.
Implicit radio
Implicit broadcast: implemented with an Intent Filter that does not specify the name of the broadcast receiver. The Android system matches the action (action), category (category), and data (URL and data type) set in the implicit intent to find the most suitable recipient to process the intent. This is generally used between applications.
The following is an example:
// Register the receiver
val filter = IntentFilter()
// Set the priority
filter.priority = Awesome!
// Set the data type
filter.addDataType("text/plain")
/ / set the URL
filter.addDataScheme("https")
// Set the category
filter.addCategory("android.intent.category.DEFAULT")
registerReceiver(IBroadcastReceiver4(),filter)
// Emit an implicit broadcast
val intent = Intent()
intent.action = Constants.FILTER_NAME2
// Set the category
intent.addCategory("android.intent.category.DEFAULT")
// Set the data type
//intent.type = "text/plain"
/ / set the URL
//intent.data = Uri.parse("https://www.baidu.com")
// Set the data type and URL
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse("https://www.baidu.com"),"text/plain")
sendBroadcast(intent)
Copy the codeSo that’s implicit broadcast.
Note:
- Starting with Android 7.0 (API level 24) the system places some restrictions on broadcasting:
- ACTION_NEW_PICTURE and ACTION_NEW_VIDEO broadcasts cannot be sent.
- Must use registerReceiver (BroadcastReceiver IntentFilter) registered CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasting. Using a static declaration receiver is invalid.
- Since Android 8.0(API level 26), the system has further enhanced the restrictions on receivers declared by manifest. All but a few implicit broadcasts cannot be declared in Androidmanifest.xml, but can be invoked by display. The official recommendation is to use dynamic registration to register broadcasts.
- As of Android 9.0(API level 28), NETWORK_STATE_CHANGED_ACTION broadcasts do not receive information about the user’s location or personally identifiable data. Additionally, when the app is installed on a device running Android9.0 or higher, the wi-fi system broadcast no longer contains the SSID, BSSID, connection information or scan results. To get this information, call getConnectionInfo().
