Get appWidgetId (or use some copy ONE widget)

[korshkov]

Hello!
Please help me.
I create one widget and place on home screen some copy.
How get unique id for each? I want display different content with different setting using ONE created widget.
On android developer site write about appWidgetId.
How to use this attribute on b4a?
Thanks.

You can extract the widget ID from the intent.

Add the following code to see the values:

Log(StartingIntent)
Log(StartingIntent.ExtrasToString)

When Service_Start i write:

If StartingIntent.Action = "android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE_OPTIONS" Then
      MyViewID = StartingIntent.GetExtra("appWidgetId")
      rv.SetText("Label3", MyViewID)
End If

MyViewID defined in Process_Globals

Only when i view log in Label1_Click

rv_RequestUpdate
rv.HandleWidgetEvents
Log("MyViewID: " & MyViewID)

MyViewID in all widgets copy is identical...


How receive Intent parameter in Lablel1_Click?

After a more thorough check, I don't think that it will currently work. Currently you cannot distinguish between multiple instances of the same widget.
