Question

I have problems to register a BroadcastReceiver.

It works when I register it with registerReceiver :

registerReceiver(new NotifReceiver(), new IntentFilter(NotifReceiver.POST_NOTIF));

But not with AndroidManifest.xml :

    <receiver
        android:name=".receiver.NotifReceiver"
        android:enabled="true"
        android:exported="false" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name=".receiver.NotifReceiver.POST_NOTIF" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>

NotifReceiver.java :

public class NotifReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    public static final String POST_NOTIF = "POST_NOTIF";

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        if (intent.getAction().equals(POST_NOTIF)) {
            Log.d("debug", "action received");
        }
    }

}

Try changing below two lines in your Manifest.xml:

1. android:name=".receiver.NotifReceiver"
2. <action android:name=".receiver.NotifReceiver.POST_NOTIF"/>

to

1. android:name="*full.pkg.name*.receiver.NotifReceiver"
2. <action android:name="*full.pkg.name*.receiver.NotifReceiver.POST_NOTIF"/>
