Base activity class for use on wearables. Provides compatibility for Ambient mode support.

If this library is passed through proguard optimization, make sure to add the com.google.android.wearable:wearable jar to the list of proguard library jars. Using gradle this can be accomplished by adding the following dependency line:

 dependencies {
     provided 'com.google.android.wearable:wearable:1.0+'
 }

Constants

EXTRA_BURN_IN_PROTECTION

String EXTRA_BURN_IN_PROTECTION

Property in bundle passed to onEnterAmbient(Bundle) and onUpdateAmbient() to indicate whether burn-in protection is required. When this property is set to true, views must be shifted around periodically in ambient mode. To ensure that content isn't shifted off the screen, avoid placing content within 10 pixels of the edge of the screen. Activities should also avoid solid white areas to prevent pixel burn-in. Both of these requirements only apply in ambient mode, and only when this property is set to true.

Constant Value: "com.google.android.wearable.compat.extra.BURN_IN_PROTECTION"

EXTRA_LOWBIT_AMBIENT

String EXTRA_LOWBIT_AMBIENT

Property in bundle passed to onEnterAmbient(Bundle) and onUpdateAmbient() to indicate whether the device has low-bit ambient mode. When this property is set to true, the screen supports fewer bits for each color in ambient mode. In this case, activities should disable anti-aliasing in ambient mode.

Constant Value: "com.google.android.wearable.compat.extra.LOWBIT_AMBIENT"

Public methods

dump

void dump (String prefix,
                FileDescriptor fd,
                PrintWriter writer,
                String[] args)

Parameters
prefix String
fd FileDescriptor
writer PrintWriter
args String

isAmbient

boolean isAmbient ()

Returns
boolean true if the activity is currently in ambient.

onEnterAmbient

void onEnterAmbient (Bundle ambientDetails)

Called when an activity is entering ambient mode. This event is sent while an activity is running (after onResume, before onPause). All drawing should complete by the conclusion of this method. Note that invalidate() calls will be executed before resuming lower-power mode.

Derived classes must call through to the super class's implementation of this method. If they do not, an exception will be thrown.

Parameters
ambientDetails Bundle: bundle containing information about the display being used. It includes information about low-bit color and burn-in protection.

onExitAmbient

void onExitAmbient ()

Called when an activity should exit ambient mode. This event is sent while an activity is running (after onResume, before onPause).

Derived classes must call through to the super class's implementation of this method. If they do not, an exception will be thrown.

onUpdateAmbient

void onUpdateAmbient ()

Called when the system is updating the display for ambient mode. Activities may use this opportunity to update or invalidate views.

setAmbientEnabled

void setAmbientEnabled ()

Sets that this activity should remain displayed when the system enters ambient mode. The default is false. In this case, the activity is stopped when the system enters ambient mode.

Protected methods

onCreate

void onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState)

Parameters
savedInstanceState Bundle

onDestroy

void onDestroy ()

onPause

void onPause ()

onResume

void onResume ()

onStop

void onStop ()
