I am having a problem with setting the onStart method in my app. It always has a strikethrough, saying "This method was deprecated in API level 5. I need onStart, not onStartCommand.
How can I resolve this?
MyNotificationService.java
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MyNotificationService extends Service {
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate();
Toast.makeText(this, "OnCreate()", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onDestroy();
Toast.makeText(this, "OnDestroy()", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
@Deprecated
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onStart(intent, startId);
}
}
Reminder_2.java
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.Window;
import android.widget.DatePicker;
import android.widget.ImageButton;
public class Reminder_2 extends Activity {
String message;
DatePicker datepicker;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_reminder_2);
datepicker=(DatePicker)findViewById(R.id.datePicker1);
Home();
Next();
Save();
}
private void Next() {
final MediaPlayer button_tone = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.button_sound);
ImageButton Button = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton1);
View.OnClickListener myListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
button_tone.start();
finish();
}
};
Button.setOnClickListener(myListener);
}
private void Save() {
final MediaPlayer button_tone = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.button_sound);
ImageButton Button = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton3);
View.OnClickListener myListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
button_tone.start();
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setClass(getApplicationContext(), MyNotificationService.class);
startService(intent);
}
};
Button.setOnClickListener(myListener);
}
private void Home() {
final MediaPlayer button_tone = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.button_sound);
ImageButton Button = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton2);
View.OnClickListener myListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
button_tone.start();
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);
}
};
Button.setOnClickListener(myListener);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.reminder, menu);
return true;
}
}
Use onStartCommand()
.
It you want to know more about how they change it, refer to google documentation like below.
// This is the old onStart method that will be called on the pre-2.0
// platform. On 2.0 or later we override onStartCommand() so this
// method will not be called.
@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
handleStart(intent, startId);
}
@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
handleStart(intent, startId);
return START_NOT_STICKY;
}
