Overloads

abstract member SendStickyBroadcast : Android.Content.Intent -> unit

Parameters

intent
Intent

The Intent to broadcast; all receivers matching this Intent will receive the broadcast, and the Intent will be held to be re-broadcast to future receivers.

Attributes

Remarks

Perform a #sendBroadcast(Intent) that is "sticky," meaning the Intent you are sending stays around after the broadcast is complete, so that others can quickly retrieve that data through the return value of #registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver, IntentFilter). In all other ways, this behaves the same as #sendBroadcast(Intent).

This member is deprecated. Sticky broadcasts should not be used. They provide no security (anyone can access them), no protection (anyone can modify them), and many other problems. The recommended pattern is to use a non-sticky broadcast to report that <em>something</em> has changed, with another mechanism for apps to retrieve the current value whenever desired.
