I am creating an application in which the user can set an alarm based on the GPS location. I want only one alarm to be active at any time. Therefore, when the user sets a second alarm, I want to cancel the notification for the first alarm (then set a new notification for the second alarm).
Currently, my notifications continue to add up (since I cannot delete them, so they are all active). Here is my code where I try to delete the alarm and notifications:
// Stop the location alarm activity
Intent intentAlarmService_delete = new Intent(v.getContext(), AlarmService.class);
stopService(intentAlarmService_delete); // I think this calls onDestroy() in AlarmService class ...
mNtf = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
mNtf.cancelAll();
Intent alarmIntent2 = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), OneTimeAlarmReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntentAlarm = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), PENDING_INTENT_REQUEST_CODE1,
alarmIntent2, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
pendingIntentAlarm.cancel();
This is the onDestroy () function in my AlarmService.class (I'm not sure when this is called ...)
public void onDestroy(){
super.onDestroy();
mNtf.cancel(NOTIFICATION_ID1);
Intent alarmIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), OneTimeAlarmReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntentAlarm = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), PENDING_INTENT_REQUEST_CODE1,
alarmIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
pendingIntentAlarm.cancel();
Intent intentAlarmService = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), AlarmService.class);
stopService(intentAlarmService);
mNtf.cancel(NOTIFICATION_ID1);
mNtf.cancelAll();
}
Then I set a new alarm and notification:
Intent intentAlarmService2 = new Intent(v.getContext(), AlarmService.class);
startService(intentAlarmService2);
By the way, my AlarmService.class works for sure.
Thanks in advance.
