InstallSourceInfo


public final class InstallSourceInfo
extends Object implements Parcelable

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.content.pm.InstallSourceInfo


Information about how an app was installed.

Summary

Inherited constants

int CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

Descriptor bit used with describeContents(): indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor.

int PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE

Flag for use with writeToParcel(Parcel, int): the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "Parcelable someFunction()", "void someFunction(out Parcelable)", or "void someFunction(inout Parcelable)".

Fields

public static final Creator<InstallSourceInfo> CREATOR

Public methods

int describeContents()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.

String getInitiatingPackageName()

The name of the package that requested the installation, or null if not available.

SigningInfo getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo()

Information about the signing certificates used to sign the initiating package, if available.

String getInstallingPackageName()

The name of the package responsible for the installation (the installer of record), or null if not available.

String getOriginatingPackageName()

The name of the package on behalf of which the initiating package requested the installation, or null if not available.

int getPackageSource()

Information about the package source when installer installed this app.

String getUpdateOwnerPackageName()

The name of the package that is the update owner, or null if not available.

void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Inherited methods

Object clone()

Creates and returns a copy of this object.

boolean equals(Object obj)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

void finalize()

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.

final Class<?> getClass()

Returns the runtime class of this Object.

int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

final void notify()

Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.

final void notifyAll()

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.

String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object.

final void wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

final void wait(long timeoutMillis)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

final void wait()

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

abstract int describeContents()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.

abstract void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Fields

CREATOR

Added in API level 30
public static final Creator<InstallSourceInfo> CREATOR

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 30
public int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
int a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either 0 or CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR

getInitiatingPackageName

Added in API level 30
public String getInitiatingPackageName ()

The name of the package that requested the installation, or null if not available. This is normally the same as the installing package name. If the installing package name is changed, for example by calling PackageManager.setInstallerPackageName(String, String), the initiating package name remains unchanged. It continues to identify the actual package that performed the install or update.

Null may be returned if the app was not installed by a package (e.g. a system app) or if the initiating package has itself been uninstalled.

Returns
String

getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo

Added in API level 30
public SigningInfo getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo ()

Information about the signing certificates used to sign the initiating package, if available.

Returns
SigningInfo This value may be null.

getInstallingPackageName

Added in API level 30
public String getInstallingPackageName ()

The name of the package responsible for the installation (the installer of record), or null if not available. Note that this may differ from the initiating package name and can be modified via PackageManager.setInstallerPackageName(String, String).

Null may be returned if the app was not installed by a package (e.g. a system app or an app installed via adb) or if the installing package has itself been uninstalled.

Returns
String

getOriginatingPackageName

Added in API level 30
public String getOriginatingPackageName ()

The name of the package on behalf of which the initiating package requested the installation, or null if not available.

For example if a downloaded APK is installed via the Package Installer this could be the app that performed the download. This value is provided by the initiating package and not verified by the framework.

Note that the InstallSourceInfo returned by PackageManager.getInstallSourceInfo(String) will not have this information available unless the calling application holds the INSTALL_PACKAGES permission.

Returns
String

getPackageSource

Added in API level 33
public int getPackageSource ()

Information about the package source when installer installed this app.

getUpdateOwnerPackageName

Added in API level 34
public String getUpdateOwnerPackageName ()

The name of the package that is the update owner, or null if not available. This indicates the update ownership enforcement is enabled for this app, and which package is the update owner. Returns null if the update ownership enforcement is disabled for the app.

Returns
String

writeToParcel

Added in API level 30
public void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, 
                int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Parameters
dest Parcel: This value cannot be null.

flags int: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or Parcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE. Value is either 0 or a combination of Parcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE, and android.os.Parcelable.PARCELABLE_ELIDE_DUPLICATES
