Below is My code to create a shortcut to a selected application. I have really no problem and the application work quite well.
The problem is that I am able to create a shortcut with a ressource from my application:
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON_RESOURCE, Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fromContext(this, R.drawable.icon));
But I really would like with a custom drawable. ( Drawable myDrawable=.....)
How can I do?
ResolveInfo launchable=adapter.getItem(position);
final Intent shortcutIntent = new Intent();
ActivityInfo activity=launchable.activityInfo;
ComponentName name=new ComponentName(activity.applicationInfo.packageName,activity.name);
shortcutIntent.setComponent(name);
shortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
shortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
final Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_INTENT, shortcutIntent);
// Sets the custom shortcut's title
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_NAME, launchable.loadLabel(pm));
// Set the custom shortcut icon
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON_RESOURCE, Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fromContext(this, R.drawable.icon));
// add the shortcut
intent.setAction("com.android.launcher.action.INSTALL_SHORTCUT");
sendBroadcast(intent);
finish();
Thank a lot for any clue
Finally found a solution; I was stupid to use Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON_RESOURCE:
Here is the correct code:
Drawable iconDrawable = (....);
BitmapDrawable bd = (BitmapDrawable) iconDrawable;
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SHORTCUT_ICON, bd.getBitmap());
