Check Android Permissions in a Method

Question

here is my code and it works perfectly fine.

if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManag         


        

Answer 1

You can suppress this error in both the editor and in lint reports by annotating your method with @SuppressWarnings("MissingPermission"), or you can suppress the error for just a single statement by putting //noinspection MissingPermission above that line.

For example:

@SuppressWarnings("MissingPermission")
public boolean hasMapLocationPermissions(Activity activity) {
  // your checking logic
}

Or:

if (Utils.hasMapLocationPermissions(getActivity())) {
    //noinspection MissingPermission
    mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
}

Answer 2

You can rename your method as checkLocationPermission(Activity activity). I´ve discovered that your method's name must start with "check" and end with "Permission" to pass Lint warnings.

For example:

public static boolean checkLocationPermission(Context context) {
    return ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
            && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED;
}
