BroadcastReceiver requires android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED -


my android app needs notified boot_completed event. androidmanifest.xml contains <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.receive_boot_completed" /> , inside <application> tag have following receiver definition:

<receiver android:name=".onbootreceiver"            android:permission="android.permission.receive_boot_completed">     <intent-filter>         <action android:name="android.intent.action.boot_completed" />     </intent-filter> </receiver>

is android:permission="android.permission.receive_boot_completed" required? happens if not in place, there risk of application being able simulate boot event , invoking app?

in examples, the receiver contains receive_boot_completed permission , some receiver not. there api level specific differences?

is android:permission="android.permission.receive_boot_completed" required?

no, don't require permission attribute inside <receiver> declaration particular case. docs:

android:permission

the name of permission broadcasters must have send message broadcast receiver. if attribute not set, permission set <application> element's permission attribute applies broadcast receiver. if neither attribute set, receiver not protected permission.

so need attribute if want make sure broadcasters authorized permission can send it. however, boot_completed protected intent can sent system anyway. wouldn't hurt have there not necessary.

edit:

it probably wouldn't hurt leave permission attribute there many android versions , device changes out there, not include attribute sure. don't include in apps.

Unlimited choices in BASH case statement -

consider simple bash snippet: case $option in 1) image=${options[0]%.tar} ;; 2) image=${options[1]%.tar} ;; 3) image=${options[2]%.tar} ;; 4) image=${options[3]%.tar} ;; *) echo "invalid option" exit 1 esac in real script numbers goes 30. makes pretty long. can somehow specify cases variable? something this: case $option in $i) image=${options[$(($i-1))]%.tar} any pointer appreciated. you can match against multiple patterns in single clause: case $option in 1|2|3: echo "$option one, 2 or three" ;; esac if still typing you, can use simple pattern matching: case $option in # following matches # - single-digit numbers 0-9 # - two-digit numbers starting either 1 or 2 # - number 30 [0-9]|[12][0-9]|30) image=${options[$(($option-1))]%.tar} ;; *) echo "invalid option" 1>&2 exit 1 esac
