Create Notification with BroadcastReceiver

Question

I tried to create a Notification with this Code:

private void setNotificationAlarm(Context context) 
{
    Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext()         


        

Answer 1

I think you need to use

PendingIntent.getBroadcast (Context context, int requestCode, Intent intent, int flags)

instead of getService

Answer 2

you can use

Intent switchIntent = new Intent(BROADCAST_ACTION);

instead of using

Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext() , MyNotification.class);

in here BROADCAST_ACTION is action that you are defining in manifest

<receiver android:name=".MyNotification " android:enabled="true" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="your package.ANY_NAME" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

you can catch it by using that action name

public class MyNotification extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    String act = "your package.ANY_NAME";
        if(intent.getAction().equals(act)){

            //your code here
        }
}}

Answer 3

You use Notification.Builder to build the notification now and the pending intent needs to be PendingIntent.getBroadcast()
