isApplicationUid
static fun isApplicationUid(uid: Int): Boolean
Returns whether the given uid belongs to an application. Compatibility behavior:
- SDK 24 and above, this method matches platform behavior.
- SDK 16 through 23, this method is a best-effort to match platform behavior, but may default to returning
true if an accurate result is not available.
- SDK 15 and below, this method always returns
true as application UIDs and isolated processes did not exist yet.
| Parameters |
uid |
Int: a kernel uid |
| Return |
Boolean |
true if the uid corresponds to an application sandbox running in a specific user, false if the uid corresponds to an isolated user ID process or does not otherwise correspond to an application user ID, or a value based on platform-specific fallback behavior |
