Question

I am sending a request code through this to an alarm manager

 Intent broadcast_intent = new Intent(this, AlarmBroadcastReceiver.class);
        PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, rowId,  broadcast_intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

I was wondering, that in the broadcastreceiver, how can I retreive the requestcode (rowId) that I used to setup pendingIntent?

Thanks

I was searching for the same thing. One way would be to pass requestcode as extra in your Intent.

intent.putExtra("requestcode", rowId);

However, if the app is killed there is no way to retrieve the data passed by the Intent.

So you need to pass rowId as an URI , and use Intent Filter.
