In API >= 23, we are required to ask users for permission at run-time. But for some reason, the permissions are causing onResume to be called infinitely. What causes this?
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.ANYPERMISSION},1);
}
@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode,
String permissions[], int[] grantResults) {
}
When you show dialog of permission question, Acitvity goes to onPause, and when dialog hides, it goes to onResume. You have to change place of asking of permission.
A small piece of code for permissions to complete previous response :)
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23)
ensurePermissions(
Manifest.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS,
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
);
}
and:
@TargetApi(23)
private void ensurePermissions(String... permissions) {
boolean request = false;
for (String permission : permissions)
if (checkSelfPermission(permission) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
request = true;
break;
}
if (request) {
requestPermissions(permissions, REQUEST_CODE_PERMISSION);
}
}
first, your app needs to check whether you have been granted a particular permission before asking runtime permission.
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this.getApplicationContext(),
android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
} else {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION}, REQUEST_CODE);
}
