ActivityManager Class

Definition

Namespace:

Android.App

Assembly:

Remarks

This class gives information about, and interacts with, activities, services, and the containing process.

A number of the methods in this class are for debugging or informational purposes and they should not be used to affect any runtime behavior of your app. These methods are called out as such in the method level documentation.

Most application developers should not have the need to use this class, most of whose methods are for specialized use cases. However, a few methods are more broadly applicable. For instance, android.app.ActivityManager#isLowRamDevice() isLowRamDevice() enables your app to detect whether it is running on a low-memory device, and behave accordingly. android.app.ActivityManager#clearApplicationUserData() clearApplicationUserData() is for apps with reset-data functionality.

In some special use cases, where an app interacts with its Task stack, the app may use the android.app.ActivityManager.AppTask and android.app.ActivityManager.RecentTaskInfo inner classes. However, in general, the methods in this class should be used for testing and debugging purposes only.

Constructors

ActivityManager(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)

A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.

Fields

ActionReportHeapLimit	Action an app can implement to handle reports from #setWatchHeapLimit(long).
MetaHomeAlternate	<meta-data> name for a 'home' Activity that declares a package that is to be uninstalled in lieu of the declaring one.

Properties

AppTasks	Get the list of tasks associated with the calling application.
AppTaskThumbnailSize	Return the current design dimensions for AppTask thumbnails, for use with #addAppTask.
Class	Returns the runtime class of this Object. (Inherited from Object)
DeviceConfigurationInfo	Get the device configuration attributes.
Handle	The handle to the underlying Android instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsBackgroundRestricted	Query whether the user has enabled background restrictions for this app.
IsInLockTaskMode	Return whether currently in lock task mode.
IsLowMemoryKillReportSupported
IsLowRamDevice	Returns true if this is a low-RAM device.
IsRunningInTestHarness	Returns "true" if device is running in a test harness.
IsRunningInUserTestHarness	Returns "true" if the device is running in Test Harness Mode.
IsUserAMonkey	Returns "true" if the user interface is currently being messed with by a monkey.
JniIdentityHashCode	(Inherited from Object)
JniPeerMembers
LargeMemoryClass	Return the approximate per-application memory class of the current device when an application is running with a large heap.

PeerReference	(Inherited from Object)
ProcessesInErrorState	Returns a list of any processes that are currently in an error condition.
RunningAppProcesses	Returns a list of application processes that are running on the device.
ThresholdClass	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
ThresholdType	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Methods

AddAppTask(Activity, Intent, ActivityManager+TaskDescription, Bitmap)	Add a new AppTask for the calling application.
AppNotResponding(String)	Method for the app to tell system that it's wedged and would like to trigger an ANR.
