NotificationDictionary is an application to call dictionary from notification area. It works on Amazon Kindle Fire (2015). This program is based on Android BasicNotifications Sample.
A basic app showing how to display events in the system's notification bar using the NotificationCompat API. NotificationCompat API is used for compatibility with older devices, running Android 1.6 (Donut) (API level 4) or newer.
The Notification API allows the app developers to display a message outside of your application's normal UI.
The class Notification was added in the Android 3.0 (API level 11), but this sample refers to the NotificationCompat class (part of the support library), which offers the same functionality for Android 1.6 (API level 4) or newer.
A Notificaiton can be created using Notification.Builder object. At bare minimum, a Builder object must include the following:
- A small icon, set by setSmallIcon()
- A title, set by setContentTitle()
- Detail text, set by setContentText()
in the code snippet, it looks like following.
NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this);
builder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_stat_notification);
builder.setContentTitle("BasicNotifications Sample");
builder.setContentText("Time to learn about notifications!");To issue the notification, call notify() method in the NotificationManager. The code snippet will immediately display the notification icon in the notification bar.
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(
NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
notificationManager.notify(NOTIFICATION_ID, builder.build());- Android SDK v23
