Remarks

Called by a profile owner or device owner or holder of the permission android.Manifest.permission#MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_LOCK_TASK. to set a default activity that the system selects to handle intents that match the given IntentFilter. This activity will remain the default intent handler even if the set of potential event handlers for the intent filter changes and if the intent preferences are reset.

Note that the caller should still declare the activity in the manifest, the API just sets the activity to be the default one to handle the given intent filter.

The default disambiguation mechanism takes over if the activity is not installed (anymore). When the activity is (re)installed, it is automatically reset as default intent handler for the filter.

The calling device admin must be a profile owner or device owner. If it is not, a security exception will be thrown.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the persistent preferred activity policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain: <ul> <li> The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#PERSISTENT_PREFERRED_ACTIVITY_POLICY<li> The additional policy params bundle, which contains PolicyUpdateReceiver#EXTRA_INTENT_FILTER the intent filter the policy applies to <li> The TargetUser that this policy relates to <li> The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY) </ul> If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.

NOTE: Performs disk I/O and shouldn't be called on the main thread.
