Question

Is it possible to query the Android AlarmManager for the time of the next alarm for a given PendingIntent? I know I can cancel one using the .cancel(PendingIntent) function, and I can update one using .set(), but is it possible to “query” one? I use something like this to see if one is already scheduled:

    PendingIntent sender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE);

If sender == null, then one is already scheduled. I’d really like to know “for what time?” if possible.

I know I could save this in a database or other location, when I set it, but I’d really like query “the official source” to be sure. Possible?

Unfortunately, no. ‘AlarmManager’ is a write-only interface.
