I have seen several questions regarding how to update widgets but nothing is helping me with my issue.
I created a widget that has a textview that I want to dynamically
@Override
public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds) {
//set widget id
ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName(context, WidgetProvider.class);
int[] allWidgetIds = appWidgetManager.getAppWidgetIds(thisWidget);
for (int i = 0; i < appWidgetIds.length; i++) {
Intent intentService = new Intent(context, WidgetService.class);
intentService.putExtra(AppWidgetManager.EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID, appWidgetIds[i]);
intentService.setData(Uri.parse(intentService.toUri(Intent.URI_INTENT_SCHEME)));
RemoteViews widget = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget);
Intent clickIntent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
PendingIntent clickPI = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, clickIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
widget.setTextViewText(R.id.currency, " Dollar");
appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetIds[i], widget);
}
super.onUpdate(context, appWidgetManager, appWidgetIds);
}
This code works for me. You may try this.
