The type of account to add; must not be null

authTokenType: String

The type of auth token (see #getAuthToken) this account will need to be able to generate, null for none

requiredFeatures: String[]

The features (see #hasFeatures) this account must have, null for none

addAccountOptions: Bundle

Authenticator-specific options for the request, may be null or empty

activity: Activity

The Activity context to use for launching a new authenticator-defined sub-Activity to prompt the user to create an account; used only to call startActivity(); if null, the prompt will not be launched directly, but the necessary Intent will be returned to the caller instead

callback: IAccountManagerCallback

Callback to invoke when the request completes, null for no callback

handler: Handler

Returns

IAccountManagerFuture

An AccountManagerFuture which resolves to a Bundle with these fields if activity was specified and an account was created: <ul> <li> #KEY_ACCOUNT_NAME - the name of the account created <li> #KEY_ACCOUNT_TYPE - the type of the account </ul>

        If no activity was specified, the returned Bundle contains only
        <code data-dev-comment-type="c">#KEY_INTENT</code> with the <code data-dev-comment-type="c">Intent</code> needed to launch the
        actual account creation process.  If an error occurred,
        <code data-dev-comment-type="c">AccountManagerFuture#getResult()</code> throws:
        &lt;ul&gt;
        &lt;li&gt; <code data-dev-comment-type="c">AuthenticatorException</code> if no authenticator was registered for
             this account type or the authenticator failed to respond
        &lt;li&gt; <code data-dev-comment-type="c">OperationCanceledException</code> if the operation was canceled for
             any reason, including the user canceling the creation process or adding accounts
             (of this type) has been disabled by policy
        &lt;li&gt; <code data-dev-comment-type="c">IOException</code> if the authenticator experienced an I/O problem
             creating a new account, usually because of network trouble
        &lt;/ul&gt;

Attributes: RegisterAttribute RequiresPermissionAttribute
