  1. POAndroid widget in emulator
    text
    copied!<p>I have an existing android app. I added a simple widget to it using the following:</p> <ul> <li>updated my manifest with a <code>&lt;receiver&gt;</code> block which provides information about my <code>AppWidgetProvider</code> implementation</li> <li>added a new xml files in res/xml with a <code>&lt;appwidget-provider&gt;</code> element that contains the height/width/updatePeriod/initialLayout/icon/label attributes</li> <li>added a simple default layout with an <code>ImageView</code> and a <code>TextView</code></li> <li>implemented my <code>AppWidgetProvider</code></li> </ul> <p>When I build and deploy this to the emulator my Widget doesn't show up in the list of widgets. Am I missing some step to 'install' the widget? Do I need to do anything special to make it appear in the emulator?</p> <p>EDIT: Here's what my manifest receiver looks like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;receiver android:name=".MyAppWidgetProvider" android:label="@string/app_name" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_UPDATE" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;meta-data android:name="android.appwidget.provider" android:resource="@xml/my_appwidget_info" /&gt; &lt;/receiver&gt; </code></pre> <p>and here's what my my_appwidget_info.xml looks like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; &lt;appwidget-provider xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:icon="@drawable/ic_logo" android:label="MySampleApp" android:minWidth="294dp" android:minHeight="72dp" android:updatePeriodMillis="86400000" android:initialLayout="@layout/my_app_widget" &gt; &lt;/appwidget-provider&gt; </code></pre>
