How to handle double click from headset hook?

Question

I would like to control my squash score counter app via only one head set button. It means that I want to detect single or double click and add score to first or second player according to number of clicks.

I cannot use long click, instead of double click, because long click activate Google Now.

Answer 1

This is what I used in my music player to handle headset control single and double click.

static final long CLICK_DELAY = 500;
static long lastClick = 0; // oldValue
static long currentClick = System.currentTimeMillis();

@Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_BUTTON)) {

            KeyEvent keyEvent = (KeyEvent) intent.getExtras().get(Intent.EXTRA_KEY_EVENT);

            if (keyEvent.getAction() != KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN)return;

            lastClick = currentClick ;

            currentClick = System.currentTimeMillis();

            if(currentClick - lastClick < CLICK_DELAY ){

                 //This is double click

            } else { 

                 //This is single click

            }
        }
