Question

Do you know on how to link an image from current widget and link it to specified url?

I’ve been searching for the solution in Google, could not found the exact solution.

Im now developing a simple widget.. Its really new for me, Im not really understand on how to use the AppWidgetProvider

My current widget is only displaying image which it will directly link to a website when user click it..

So, my question is, which of these should I use in AppWidgetProvider ?

As we know there are 4 of them..

• onDeleted(context)
• onDisabled(context)
• onUpdated(context)
• onReceived(context)

can u explain a bit more about it? and the steps for me to make the code for linking the image to website.

thanks friends

Indeed this won’t work for AppWidgets. You should call setOnClickPendingIntent() on your RemoteViews instance, passing it the ImageView id and the following PendingIntent object:

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.google.com"));
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, i, 0);

Here’s the documentation for the method. Hope this helps.
