Android Question Possible to request RuntimePermissions from within a class, and get the results in same class?

[Sandman]

I'm working on an existing, working project. (Using B4XPages, if that matter.)

In that work I'm moving some things into classes. A sub that request RuntimePermissions also made its way into a class, because it made sense. However, the result from the request end up in B4XPage_PermissionResult, and not in the actual class as I expected.

So I started wondering if it's even possible to request permissions from within classes, and get the results directly back into it? I couldn't find anything on the forum about it.

(I do realize that I could accept the result in B4XPage_PermissionResult and send it back into the waiting class, but I thought I'd ask the forum if there was a cleaner way of doing this first.)

Yes.

In Calendar sample we request permission in the same page where required. Page means class, I take here.

Well, if you do it directly from within a B4XPage, it's not really the same thing. B4XPages have this code in Main to send the result into the correct page:

Sub Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
    B4XPages.Delegate.Activity_PermissionResult(Permission, Result)
End Sub

Which makes me think that if I request it from a class, it won't work, as there's nothing sending it from the B4XPage into the class. I hope to be wrong, hence this thread.

I don't know if it will be useful / sufficient for you...

Delegate it you too:

B4XMainPage

Private Sub B4XPage_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
    YourObject.PermissioneResult(Permission, Result)
End Sub

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking, I just wanted to see if I was missing something that made this unnecessary. Thanks.
