RoleManagerCompat
class RoleManagerCompat
kotlin.Any | |
↳ | androidx.core.role.RoleManagerCompat |
This class contains the name and documentation for roles that might be available in the system.
The list of available roles might change with a system app update, so apps should not make assumption about the availability of roles. Instead, they should always check if the role is available using android.app.role.RoleManager#isRoleAvailable(String)
before trying to do anything with it.
