Example app for shortcuts in design library v25
Add meta-data before </activity> tag in Manifest.xml
<meta-data android:name="android.app.shortcuts" android:resource="@xml/shortcuts" /> To add or edit a new shotcut, go to /res/xml/shortcuts.xml :
<shortcuts xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <shortcut android:shortcutId="shortcut1" android:enabled="true" android:icon="@drawable/ic_directions_run_black_24dp" android:shortcutShortLabel="@string/shortcut1" android:shortcutLongLabel="@string/shortcut1_long" android:shortcutDisabledMessage="@string/shortcut1_disabled"> <intent android:action="custom_action" android:targetPackage="com.pamir.shortcuts" android:targetClass="com.pamir.shortcuts.MainActivity" /> </shortcut> </shortcuts>To handle shortcuts, just add new constant:
private final static String CUSTOM_ACTION = "custom_action"; and check the intent for custom action :
switch (getIntent().getAction()){ case CUSTOM_ACTION: textView.setText(CUSTOM_ACTION); break; default: break; }
