how to add app launcher icon to homescreen on android oreo(8.0)?

问题

I am making an android app on Android 8.0. I have read develop doc of shortcut changed before at Using Static Shortcuts but this doc has not method add launcher icon to home screen.

I have used method before 8.0.:

Intent i= new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);  
i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);

Intent intent = new Intent();     
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_INTENT, i);     
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_NAME, 
context.getResources().getString(R.string.app_name));       
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON_RESOURCE, 
Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fromContext(context, R.drawable.icon));
intent.setAction(com.android.launcher.action.INSTALL_SHORTCUT);
context.sendBroadcast(intent);

how to add app luncher icon to homescreen? thanks.

As mentioned on Android Developers

The com.android.launcher.action.INSTALL_SHORTCUT broadcast no longer has any effect on your app, because it is now a private, implicit broadcast. Instead, you should create an app shortcut by using the requestPinShortcut() method from the ShortcutManager class.

As we all know from android version 8.0 many behaviour changes. Try the following code in oreo to create a shortcut icon automatically at the time of install the application.

 if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > Build.VERSION_CODES.N_MR1) {


            Intent shortcutIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SplashActivity.class);
            shortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
            shortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
            shortcutIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);

            ShortcutInfoCompat shortcut = new ShortcutInfoCompat.Builder(getContext(), "shortcut")
                    .setShortLabel(getResources().getString(R.string.app_name))
                    .setIcon(IconCompat.createWithResource(getApplicationContext(), R.mipmap.ic_launcher))
                    .setIntent(shortcutIntent)
                    .build();
            ShortcutManagerCompat.requestPinShortcut(getApplicationContext(), shortcut, null);
        }
