Method Detail

getPermissionStatus

public static PermissionCompat.PermissionStatus getPermissionStatus(Context context,
                                                                    String permissionName)

Dynamically checks app permissions at runtime, with forward and backward compatibility for pre-Marshmallow and post-Mashmallow permission behavior. The behavior is different from android.support.v4.content.PermissionChecker. This method lets SDK and app developers handle scenarios when permissions may intentionally be omitted from the manifest. Note that on Marshmallow, this class also correctly handles checking for Manifest.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS and Manifest.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS.

Parameters:

context - Application context.

permissionName - Name of the permission to check.

Returns:

The status indicating whether context is able to use permissionName. Note that PermissionCompat.PermissionStatus.NOT_GRANTED_BY_MANIFEST is higher priority than PermissionCompat.PermissionStatus.NOT_GRANTED_BY_USER, so PermissionCompat.PermissionStatus.NOT_GRANTED_BY_MANIFEST will be returned when both statuses are true.
