Remarks

Activity action to launch from your AppWidgetHost activity when you want to bind an AppWidget to display and bindAppWidgetIdIfAllowed returns false.

You must supply the following extras: <table> <tr> <td>#EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID</td> <td>A newly allocated appWidgetId, which will be bound to the AppWidget provider you provide.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>#EXTRA_APPWIDGET_PROVIDER</td> <td>The BroadcastReceiver that will be the AppWidget provider for this AppWidget. </td> </tr> <tr> <td>#EXTRA_APPWIDGET_PROVIDER_PROFILE</td> <td>An optional handle to a user profile under which runs the provider for this AppWidget. </td> </tr> </table>

The system will respond with an onActivityResult call with the following extras in the intent: <table> <tr> <td>#EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID</td> <td>The appWidgetId that you supplied in the original intent.</td> </tr> </table>

When you receive the result from the AppWidget bind activity, if the resultCode is android.app.Activity#RESULT_OK, the AppWidget has been bound. You should then check the AppWidgetProviderInfo for the returned AppWidget, and if it has one, launch its configuration activity. If android.app.Activity#RESULT_CANCELED is returned, you should delete the appWidgetId.
