Code stops executing at mNotificationManager.notify( , )


Although all the sendXXXXX booleans are true the code stops executing at the first notify(). If I manually set the first one to false, then the code stops executing inside the second if statement.

When .notify() is called acts like a return statement. It exits the function but doesn't throw any errors/exceptions.

if (sendAC) {
    mNotificationManager.notify(XMPP_ID, notificationHouse);
}
if (sendRefridgerator) {
    mNotificationManager.notify(XMPP_IDRefridgerator, notificationRefridgerator);
}
if (sendWater) {
    mNotificationManager.notify(XMPP_IDWater, notificationWater);
}

Solution

  • Okay, hours later figured it out. It was a silent exception (it didn't show up in Logcat). I went through the thread step by step in the debugger and it showed a security exception. So I added a try catch around it to figure out what the error was. I just didn't have vibrate permissions in the manifest so I was getting a SecurityException, but it wasn't showing without the catch.
