在 Android 应用程序中使用 BROADCAST RECEIVER 自动重启时在上下文中获取 NULL

Question

I am developing android application which need auto restart when restart device for that I am using broadcast receiver with action BOOT_COMPLETED.

Broadcast receiver is receiving message when I am restarting device but in restart method I want to start main activity for that I used Intent but in onReceive method of receiver I am getting null context so I am unable to restart main Activity.

Below is code for that.

MainActivity.java

private Object activity;
private TextView tvImeiNum;
private BroadcastReceiver rebootreceiver;
private IntentFilter filter;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    tvImeiNum = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv_imeinum);

     filter = new IntentFilter();
    filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED);
    filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_REBOOT);



    rebootreceiver = new BootUpReceiver(MainActivity.this);

    LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(rebootreceiver, 
filter);//registering receiver


    generateUniqueCode();
}

BootupReceiver.java

    public class BootUpReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

        MainActivity ma;
        public BootUpReceiver(MainActivity maContext){
            ma=maContext;
        }

        public BootUpReceiver(){
        }

        @RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

            if (intent.getAction().equals("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED")) {
                Log.d("TAG REBOOT", "onReceive: " + intent);
                Log.d("Reboot complete", "connection");

                GlobalTool.restartApplication(context);

            }
        }
    }

GlobalTool.java

    public class GlobalTool {

        @RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
        public static void restartApplication(Context context) {
    

            Log.d("IN App restart:", "");


            Log.d("TAG", "restartApplication: ");
            if(context != null)
            {
                Log.d("TAG NULL", "restartApplication: ");
                Intent mainIntent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);

                AlarmManager alarmMgr = (AlarmManager) 
context.getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
                TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(context);
                stackBuilder.addNextIntent(mainIntent);
                PendingIntent pendingIntent = stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0, 
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

                long alarmTime = System.currentTimeMillis() + (1 * 1000);
                alarmMgr.setExact(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, alarmTime, pendingIntent);
                Log.d("TAG", "restartApplication: 111");
                Log.d("TAG", "restartApplication: 111");

            }
            else {
                Intent mainIntent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);

                AlarmManager alarmMgr = (AlarmManager) 
context.getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
                TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(context);
                stackBuilder.addNextIntent(mainIntent);
                PendingIntent pendingIntent = stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0, 
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

            long alarmTime = System.currentTimeMillis() + (1 * 1000);
            alarmMgr.setExact(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, alarmTime, pendingIntent);
            Log.d("TAG", "restartApplication: 111");
            Log.d("TAG", "restartApplication: 111");
        }
    }

}

Answer 1

Some you code improvements:

1. Don't put context to Brodcast Receiver constructor. Use the Context from onReceive method

    public class BootUpReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
        public BootUpReceiver(){
           //TODO log
        }
    ...

2. You should not use LocalBroadcastManager::registerReceiver call. If Broadcast receiver is added to AndroidManifest then it will be started by the system.

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
    <receiver
        android:name=".activity.BootUpReceiver"
        android:enabled="true"
        android:exported="true"
        android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED">
        <intent-filter >
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>

3. Don't use CamelCase for package names (use.activity.BootUpReceiver insetad.Activity.BootUpReceiver)
