Attributes

Remarks

Version of #sendStickyBroadcast(Intent) that allows you to specify the user the broadcast will be sent to. This is not available to applications that are not pre-installed on the system image.

This member is deprecated. Sticky broadcasts should not be used. They provide no security (anyone can access them), no protection (anyone can modify them), and many other problems. The recommended pattern is to use a non-sticky broadcast to report that <em>something</em> has changed, with another mechanism for apps to retrieve the current value whenever desired.
