The use of Android Appwidget and the use of TimerTask to implement widget timing updates

The first step: first, the definition declaration of the widget:

Create the file Example_appwidget_info.xml in the XML folder under the resource file:

<?xml version= "1.0" encoding= "Utf-8"? ><appwidget-provider xmlns:android= "http://schemas.android.com/apk/ Res/android "    android:initiallayout=" @layout/process_widget "    android:minheight=" 72.0dip "    android: Minwidth= "294.0dip"    android:updateperiodmillis= "0"/>

Step Two: Write Mywidget class implementation Appwidgetprovider

Package Cn.itcast.testwidget;import Cn.itcast.mobilesafe.service.updatewidgetservice;import Android.appwidget.appwidgetmanager;import Android.appwidget.appwidgetprovider;import Android.content.Context; Import android.content.intent;/** * Update the interface minimum for half an hour based on the profile every fixed time 1800000 ms Onrecevie-> OnUpdate Note * Widget This component is not real In our application there are different desktop applications displayed on the desktop of their widgets created and destroyed corresponding callback events may have no * Android LUNCHER/HTC sence/M ui/360 desktop/AWT/QQ Desktop/... */pu Blic class Mywidget extends Appwidgetprovider {//Appwidgetprovider inherited from Broadcastreceiver@Overridepublic void OnReceive (context context, Intent Intent) {//TODO auto-generated method Stubsuper.onreceive ( context, intent); System.out.println ("OnReceive");} @Overridepublic void OnUpdate (context context, Appwidgetmanager appwidgetmanager,int[] appwidgetids) { System.out.println ("OnUpdate"); Super.onupdate (context, Appwidgetmanager, appwidgetids);} @Overridepublic void ondeleted (context context, int[] appwidgetids) {super.ondeleted (context, appwidgetids);// The OnDelete method is executed when a widget is deleted Intent = new Intent (context, updatewidgetservice.class); Context.stopservice (Intent);} @Overridepublic void onenabled (context context) {super.onenabled (context);//The method that the widget executes when it is first created//initializes the operation of the widget data, Open background service, etc. Intent = new Intent (context, updatewidgetservice.class); Context.startservice (Intent);} @Overridepublic void ondisabled (context context) {super.ondisabled (context); System.out.println ("ondisabled");//When all widgets are deleted execute ondisable ();//Stop our Open service//delete junk file temp file}}

Step three: Register the activity in the manifest file:

<receiver android:name= "Mywidget" >    <intent-filter>        <action android:name= " Android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE "/>    </intent-filter>    <meta-data        android:name= "Android.appwidget.provider"        android:resource= "@xml/example_appwidget_info"/></receiver>

Fourth: Create a View resource file for the widget:

The following is the Golden Hill Mobile defender's widget view, for reference only:

<?xml version= "1.0" encoding= "Utf-8"? ><linearlayout xmlns:android= "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ Android "Android:layout_width=" Fill_parent "android:layout_height=" wrap_content "android:gravity=" center_vertical "Android:src=" @drawable/widget_bg_portrait "> <linearlayout android:id=" @+id/pw_ll "Android:lay Out_width= "0.0dip" android:layout_height= "fill_parent" android:layout_marginleft= "5.0dip" Android:lay        Out_weight= "1.0" android:background= "@drawable/widget_bg_portrait_child" android:gravity= "center_vertical"        android:orientation= "vertical" android:paddingbottom= "3.0dip" android:paddingtop= "3.0dip" > <textview android:id= "@+id/process_count" android:layout_width= "Wrap_content" Android: layout_height= "Wrap_content" android:layout_marginleft= "10.0dip"/> <imageview android:         Layout_width= "Fill_parent"   android:layout_height= "Wrap_content" android:layout_marginbottom= "1.0dip" Android:layout_marginto            p= "1.0dip" android:background= "@drawable/widget_bg_portrait_child_divider"/> <textview Android:id= "@+id/process_memory" android:layout_width= "wrap_content" android:layout_height= "Wrap_co Ntent "android:layout_marginleft=" 10.0dip "/> </LinearLayout> <linearlayout Android:la Yout_width= "Wrap_content" android:layout_height= "wrap_content" android:gravity= "Center_horizontal" an droid:orientation= "vertical" > <linearlayout android:layout_width= "wrap_content" Androi d:layout_height= "Wrap_content" android:gravity= "center_vertical" > <imageview A Ndroid:layout_width= "20.0dip" android:layout_height= "20.0dip" android:background= "@drawable/     Notification "/>       <textview android:layout_width= "wrap_content" android:layout_height= "Wrap_content" android:text= "@string/app_name"/> </LinearLayout> <button Android:id = "@+id/btn_clear" android:layout_width= "90.0dip" android:layout_height= "Wrap_content" and Roid:layout_centervertical= "true" android:layout_margintop= "5.0dip" android:background= "@drawable/bu Tton_background_selected "android:text=" one-click Cleanup "/> </LinearLayout></LinearLayout>

Effect:

Fifth: Regularly update views with Updatewidgetservice services:

Package Cn.itcast.mobilesafe.service;import Java.util.timer;import Java.util.timertask;import Cn.itcast.mobilesafe.r;import Cn.itcast.mobilesafe.receiver.lockscreenreceiver;import Cn.itcast.mobilesafe.ui.taskmanageractivity;import Cn.itcast.mobilesafe.util.taskutil;import Android.app.pendingintent;import Android.app.service;import Android.appwidget.appwidgetmanager;import Android.content.componentname;import Android.content.intent;import Android.graphics.color;import Android.os.ibinder;import Android.widget.remoteviews;public class Updatewidgetservice extends Service {private Timer Timer;private timertask task;private appwidgetmanager widgetmanager; @Overridepublic ibinder onbind (Intent Intent) { return null;} @Overridepublic void OnCreate () {timer = new timer (); Widgetmanager = Appwidgetmanager.getinstance ( Getapplicationcontext ()); task = new TimerTask () {@Overridepublic void Run () {//Update widget interface componentname name = new Compon Entname ("Cn.itcast.mobilesafe", "CN.ITCAST.MOBILESAFE.RECEIVER.PRocesswidget ");//get widgetremoteviews views = new Remoteviews (" Cn.itcast.mobilesafe ", R.layout.process_ Widget),//Get widget layout views.settextviewtext (r.id.process_count, "XXXX");//Set Text Views.settextcolor for Process_count ( R.id.process_count, color.red);//Set text color views.settextviewtext for Process_count (r.id.process_memory, "XXXX"); Views.settextcolor (R.id.process_memory, color.red); Intent Intent = new Intent (updatewidgetservice.this, Xxxx.class); Pendingintent pendingintent = Pendingintent.getbroadcast (Getapplicationcontext (), 0, intent, 0); Views.setonclickpendingintent (R.id.btn_clear, pendingintent);//To Btn_ in the layout file Clear Set Click event Widgetmanager.updateappwidget (name, views);//Update widget}};timer.scheduleatfixedrate (Task, 1000, 2000);// Delay one second update frequency 2 seconds super.oncreate ();} @Overridepublic void OnDestroy () {timer.cancel (); timer = Null;task = Null;super.ondestroy ();}}
