I am scheduling a repeating task using the AlarmManager and the following code. The task appears to schedule correctly because I get an error when the millis are hit.
Intent i = new Intent(currentContext, AlarmReceiver.class);
i.putExtra("scheduled_alarm", a);
PendingIntent mAlarmSender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(currentContext, 0, i, 0);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) currentContext.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calculateMillis(a, Calendar.MONDAY),
weeklyInterval,mAlarmSender)
The error that appears in my LogCat at the time of the scheduled task is here;
com.example:remote Trace error opening trace file: No such file or directory (2)
I have been searching for ages to find a reason for this but cannot. I am using the emulator only because I currently lack a physical device to test it on. My BoradcastReceiver class is here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
public class AlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
try {
Alarm a = (Alarm) intent.getExtras().getSerializable("scheduledalarm");
Intent creatNewPage = new Intent(context, DisplayAlarm.class);
creatNewPage.putExtra("alarm", a);
context.startActivity(creatNewPage);
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
}
The issue was that I was missing this line;
createNewPage.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
