public final class CallingAppInfo
extends Object implements Parcelable



Information pertaining to the calling application, including the package name and a list of app signatures.

Summary

Inherited constants

From interface android.os.Parcelable

int CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

Descriptor bit used with describeContents(): indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor.

int PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE

Flag for use with writeToParcel(Parcel, int): the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "Parcelable someFunction()", "void someFunction(out Parcelable)", or "void someFunction(inout Parcelable)".

From class java.lang.Object

Object clone()

Creates and returns a copy of this object.

boolean equals(Object obj)

final void notifyAll()

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.

String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object.

final void wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

final void wait(long timeoutMillis)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

final void wait()

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

From interface android.os.Parcelable

abstract int describeContents()

abstract void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Fields

Public constructors

CallingAppInfo

public CallingAppInfo (String packageName, 
                SigningInfo signingInfo)

Constructs a new instance.

Parameters
packageName String: This value cannot be null.
signingInfo SigningInfo: This value cannot be null.
Throws
IllegalArgumentException If packageName is null or empty.
NullPointerException If signingInfo is null.

CallingAppInfo

public CallingAppInfo (String packageName, 
                SigningInfo signingInfo, 
                String origin)

Constructs a new instance.

Parameters
packageName String: - the package name of the calling app.
This value cannot be null.
signingInfo SigningInfo: - the signing info on the calling app.
This value cannot be null.
origin String: - the origin that the calling app wants to use when making request on behalf of other.
This value may be null.
Throws
IllegalArgumentException If packageName is null or empty.
NullPointerException If signingInfo is null.

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(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 0 or

getOrigin

public String getOrigin ()

Returns the origin of the calling app if set otherwise returns null. This value is set only if the origin is different than that of the calling app, and should be expected from privileged callers(browsers) only when making request on behalf of other applications. Android system makes sure that only applications that poses the permission Manifest.permission.CREDENTIAL_MANAGER_SET_ORIGIN can set the origin on the incoming GetCredentialRequest or CreateCredentialRequest.

Returns
String

getPackageName

public String getPackageName ()

Returns the package name of the source of this info.

Returns
String This value cannot be null.

getSigningInfo

public SigningInfo getSigningInfo ()

Returns the SigningInfo object that contains an array of Signature belonging to the app.

Returns
SigningInfo This value cannot be null.

toString

public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns
String a string representation of the object.
