I'm very new to android. I want to create an application that turns off all sounds at the selected time. I created a service with some code and in Eclipse there's no errors, but when I press the button nothing happens. I can see in Application Manager that my program and the service SilentHours are running. Here's my code:
MainActivity.java
package com.example.silencecontrol;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
public final static String EXTRA_NAME = "sending silentHour value to service SilenceHours";
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
public void setSilenceHours(View view) {
EditText editText1 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
TextView textView1 = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
if(editText1.length() > 0) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SilentHours.class);
String editText1String = editText1.getText().toString();
int silentHour = Integer.parseInt(editText1String);
intent.putExtra(EXTRA_NAME, silentHour);
this.startService(intent);
} else {
textView1.setText("Please enter the silence hour. ");
}
}
}
SilentHours.java
package com.example.silencecontrol;
import java.util.Calendar;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.media.AudioManager;
import android.os.IBinder;
public class SilentHours extends Service {
public SilentHours() {
}
protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
int silentHour = Integer.parseInt(intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.EXTRA_NAME));
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
int currentTime = calendar.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
if(currentTime >= silentHour) {
AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager)getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
audioManager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_RING, 0, 0);
audioManager.setStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 0, 0);
}
}
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO: Return the communication channel to the service.
throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not yet implemented");
}
}
And by the way I can't @Override the onHandleIntent method. If I put the @Override
annotation I get error:
The method onHandleIntent(Intent) of type SilentHours must override or implement a supertype method.
Is that annotation necessary?
