Attributes

Remarks

Change whether a user can uninstall a package. This function can be called by a device owner, profile owner, or by a delegate given the #DELEGATION_BLOCK_UNINSTALL scope via #setDelegatedScopes or holders of the permission android.Manifest.permission#MANAGE_DEVICE_POLICY_APPS_CONTROL.

Starting from Build.VERSION_CODES#UPSIDE_DOWN_CAKE, after the set uninstall blocked policy has been set, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin on whether the policy was successfully set or not. This callback will contain: <ul> <li> The policy identifier DevicePolicyIdentifiers#PACKAGE_UNINSTALL_BLOCKED_POLICY<li> The additional policy params bundle, which contains PolicyUpdateReceiver#EXTRA_PACKAGE_NAME the package name the policy applies to <li> The TargetUser that this policy relates to <li> The PolicyUpdateResult, which will be PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_POLICY_SET if the policy was successfully set or the reason the policy failed to be set (e.g. PolicyUpdateResult#RESULT_FAILURE_CONFLICTING_ADMIN_POLICY) </ul> If there has been a change to the policy, PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicyChanged(Context, String, Bundle, TargetUser, PolicyUpdateResult) will notify the admin of this change. This callback will contain the same parameters as PolicyUpdateReceiver#onPolicySetResult and the PolicyUpdateResult will contain the reason why the policy changed.
