A description of an Intent and target action to perform with it. The returned object can be handed to other applications so that they can perform the action you described on your behalf at a later time.

By giving a IntentSender to another application, you are granting it the right to perform the operation you have specified as if the other application was yourself (with the same permissions and identity). As such, you should be careful about how you build the IntentSender: often, for example, the base Intent you supply will have the component name explicitly set to one of your own components, to ensure it is ultimately sent there and nowhere else.

A IntentSender itself is simply a reference to a token maintained by the system describing the original data used to retrieve it. This means that, even if its owning application's process is killed, the IntentSender itself will remain usable from other processes that have been given it. If the creating application later re-retrieves the same kind of IntentSender (same operation, same Intent action, data, categories, and components, and same flags), it will receive a IntentSender representing the same token if that is still valid.

Instances of this class can not be made directly, but rather must be created from an existing PendingIntent with PendingIntent.getIntentSender().

Perform the operation associated with this IntentSender, allowing the caller to specify information about the Intent to use and be notified when the send has completed.
Params:
  • context – The Context of the caller. This may be null if intent is also null.
  • code – Result code to supply back to the IntentSender's target.
  • intent – Additional Intent data. See Intent.fillIn() for information on how this is applied to the original Intent. Use null to not modify the original Intent.
  • onFinished – The object to call back on when the send has completed, or null for no callback.
  • handler – Handler identifying the thread on which the callback should happen. If null, the callback will happen from the thread pool of the process.
Throws:
  • SendIntentException – Throws CanceledIntentException if the IntentSender is no longer allowing more intents to be sent through it.
