Check for resultCode in Android's BroadcastReceiver?

Question

I want to make a check if resultCode is RESULT_OK in Android's BroadcastReceiver 's onReceive method like we do in onActivityResult method of an Activity, but how will I do that is my question.

Receiver's code is:

new BroadcastReceiver() {

            @Override
            public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                //This is what I like to check.
                //if(resultCode == RESULT_OK)
            }
        };

Answer 1

To make a check of resultCode in BroadcastReceiver's onReceive(...) method, we can use getResultCode() method of BroadcastReceiver .

This will give us current resultCode (which can be the standard results

• RESULT_CANCELED ,
• RESULT_OK

or any custom values starting at RESULT_FIRST_USER ).

For the above question, its implementation is given as:

new BroadcastReceiver() {

            @Override
            public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                //This is what I like to check.
                if(getResultCode() == Activity.RESULT_OK)
                {
                     //Your code here.
                }
            }
        };

You can used following code

if (getResultCode() == Activity.RESULT_OK ) {
 ...
}

Answer 3

by default you can not override onactivityResult method in Broadcast receiver but you can do it in following way :

1. override onactivityResult method in any activty subclass
2. storing result into sharedpreference
3. access that value from onreceive method of broadcast using context

or initialize this type of global variable . and after compare with it.

private int resultCancel = Activity.RESULT_CANCELED;
private int resultOk = Activity.RESULT_OK;
