Fields
Public methods
describeContents
public int describeContents ()
Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable
 instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will
 include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int),
 the return value of this method must include the
 CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| int | a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled
 by this Parcelable object instance.
 Value is either 0orCONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR | 
getInitiatingPackageName
public String getInitiatingPackageName ()
The name of the package that requested the installation, or null if not available.
 This is normally the same as the installing package name. If the installing package name
 is changed, for example by calling
 PackageManager.setInstallerPackageName(String, String), the initiating package name
 remains unchanged. It continues to identify the actual package that performed the install
 or update.
 
Null may be returned if the app was not installed by a package (e.g. a system app) or if the initiating package has itself been uninstalled.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | |
getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo
public SigningInfo getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo ()
Information about the signing certificates used to sign the initiating package, if available.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| SigningInfo | This value may be null. | 
getInstallingPackageName
public String getInstallingPackageName ()
The name of the package responsible for the installation (the installer of record), or null
 if not available.
 Note that this may differ from the initiating package name and can be modified via
 PackageManager.setInstallerPackageName(String, String).
 
Null may be returned if the app was not installed by a package (e.g. a system app or an app installed via adb) or if the installing package has itself been uninstalled.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | |
getOriginatingPackageName
public String getOriginatingPackageName ()
The name of the package on behalf of which the initiating package requested the installation, or null if not available.
For example if a downloaded APK is installed via the Package Installer this could be the app that performed the download. This value is provided by the initiating package and not verified by the framework.
 Note that the InstallSourceInfo returned by
 PackageManager.getInstallSourceInfo(String) will not have this information
 available unless the calling application holds the INSTALL_PACKAGES permission.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | |
getPackageSource
public int getPackageSource ()
Information about the package source when installer installed this app.
getUpdateOwnerPackageName
public String getUpdateOwnerPackageName ()
The name of the package that is the update owner, or null if not available. This indicates the update ownership enforcement is enabled for this app, and which package is the update owner. Returns null if the update ownership enforcement is disabled for the app.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| String | |
writeToParcel
public void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, int flags)
Flatten this object in to a Parcel.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| dest | Parcel: This value cannot benull. | 
| flags | int: Additional flags about how the object should be written.
 May be 0 orParcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE.
 Value is either0or a combination ofParcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE, and android.os.Parcelable.PARCELABLE_ELIDE_DUPLICATES |
