Android Apps Create desktop shortcuts code _android

Android shortcuts are simple, you send a system broadcast, and then set intent for the shortcut---

Package com.xikang.android.slimcoach.utils;
/** * @author Huiych * Create shortcuts * @created 2013-02-21 * */import android.content.Intent;

Import android.os.Parcelable;
Import Com.xikang.android.slimcoach.AppXiKang;
Import COM.XIKANG.ANDROID.SLIMCOACH.R;

Import Com.xikang.android.slimcoach.ui.AppStart; public class Shortcututil {public static void Initshortcut () {Intent addshortcut = new Intent ("Com.android.launcher.act Ion.
 Install_shortcut ");
    You cannot create shortcuts repeatedly addshortcut.putextra ("duplicate", false); String title = Appxikang.getapp (). getString (R.string.app_name);//name parcelable icon = Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fro Mcontext (Appxikang.getapp (), R.drawable.icon)///icon//Click on the shortcut after the Operation Intent, after the shortcut is established, start the program again Intent Intent = new Intent  
    (Appxikang.getapp (), appstart.class);  
    Set the title of the shortcut Addshortcut.putextra (intent.extra_shortcut_name, title);  
    Set the icon for the shortcut Addshortcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_icon_resource, icon); Set the shortcut corresponding to the intent AddshorTcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_intent, Intent);
 Send broadcast Add shortcut Appxikang.getapp (). Sendbroadcast (Addshortcut);
 }
}

Appxikange.getapp () is the object that gets the activity.

Note that to set permissions in the manifest file

Copy Code code as follows:

<uses-permission android:name= "Com.android.launcher.permission.INSTALL_SHORTCUT"/>

This way, when you want to add a shortcut, you can give the user a alertdialog, prompt, and then reference. It's OK.

There are also many applications in the marketplace where shortcuts are created directly when the application is installed. But such a realization is not very friendly. Not recommended for use.

The following is a complete code demonstration that uses a slightly different approach than the above:

public class Shortcututil {public static void Initshortcut (activity acti) {Intent shortcut = new Intent ("Com.android.lau 
Ncher.action.INSTALL_SHORTCUT "); 
The name of the shortcut is Shortcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_name, Appxikang.getapp (). getString (R.string.app_name)); Shortcut.putextra ("duplicate", false); Do not allow duplicate creation specifies the object that the current activity starts for the shortcut: such as//com.everest.video.videoplayer//NOTE: The second parameter of componentname must be preceded by a dot (.). Otherwise the shortcut cannot start the appropriate program ComponentName comp = new ComponentName (Appxikang.getapp (). Getpackagename (), "." 
+acti.getlocalclassname ()); 
Shortcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_intent, New Intent (Intent.action_main). SetComponent (comp)); The icon for the shortcut Shortcuticonresource iconres = Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fromContext (Appxikang.getapp (), 
R.drawable.icon); 
Shortcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_icon_resource, iconres);
Appxikang.getapp (). sendbroadcast (shortcut); The public static void Delshortcut (activity acti) {Intent shortcut = new Intent ("Com.android.launcher.action.UNINSTALL_S Hortcut "); 
        
    The name of the shortcut is Shortcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_name, Appxikang.getapp (). getString (R.string.app_name 
    )); 
    String Appclass = Appxikang.getapp (). Getpackagename () + "." +acti.getlocalclassname (); 
    ComponentName comp = new ComponentName (Appxikang.getapp (). Getpackagename (), appclass); 
    Shortcut.putextra (Intent.extra_shortcut_intent, New Intent (Intent.action_main). SetComponent (comp));
  Appxikang.getapp (). sendbroadcast (shortcut); }
}
