-page.title=Application Model
-@jd:body
-<h1>Android Application Model: Applications, Tasks, Processes, and Threads</h1>
-
-<p>In most operating systems, there is a strong 1-to-1 correlation between
-the executable image (such as the .exe on Windows) that an application lives in,
-the process it runs in, and the icon and application the user interacts with.
-In Android these associations are much more fluid, and it is important to
-understand how the various pieces can be put together.</p>
-
-<p>Because of the flexible nature of Android applications, there is some
-basic terminology that needs to be understood when implementing the
-various pieces of an application:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li><p>An <strong>android package</strong> (or <strong>.apk</strong> for short)
-is the file containing an application's code and its resources. This is the
-file that an application is distributed in and downloaded by the user when
-installing that application on their device.</p></li>
-
-<li><p>A <strong>task</strong> is generally what the user perceives as
-an "application" that can be launched: usually a task has an icon in the
-home screen through which it is accessed, and it is available as a top-level
-item that can be brought to the foreground in front of other
-tasks.</p></li>
-
-<li><p>A <strong>process</strong> is a low-level kernel process in which
-an application's code is running. Normally all of the code in a
-.apk is run in one, dedicated process for that .apk; however, the
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestApplication_process process} tag
-can be used to modify where that code is run, either for
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestApplication the entire .apk}
-or for individual
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestActivity activity},
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestReceiver receiver},
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestService service}, or
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestProvider provider}, components.</p></li>
-</ul>
-
-<h2 id="Tasks">Tasks</h2>
-
-<p>A key point here is: <em>when the user sees as an "application," what
-they are actually dealing with is a task</em>. If you just create a .apk
-with a number of activities, one of which is a top-level entry point (via
-an {@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestIntentFilter intent-filter} for
-the action <code>android.intent.action.MAIN</code> and
-category <code>android.intent.category.LAUNCHER</code>), then there will indeed
-be one task created for your .apk, and any activities you start from there
-will also run as part of that task.</p>
-
-<p>A task, then, from the user's perspective your application; and from the
-application developer's perspective it is one or more activities the user
-has traversed through in that task and not yet closed, or an activity stack.
-A new task is created by
-starting an activity Intent with the {@link android.content.Intent#FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
-Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK} flag; this Intent will be used as the root Intent of
-the task, defining what task it is. Any activity started without this flag
-will run in the same task as the activity that is starting it (unless that
-activity has requested a special launch mode, as discussed later). Tasks can
-be re-ordered: if you use FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK but there is already a task
-running for that Intent, the current task's activity stack will be brought
-to the foreground instead of starting a new task.</p>
-
-<p>FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK must only be used with care: using it says that,
-from the user's perspective, a new application starts at this point. If this
-is not the behavior you desire, you should not be creating a new task. In
-addition, you should only use the new task flag if it is possible for the user
-to navigate from home back to where they are and launch the same Intent as a
-new task. Otherwise, if the user presses HOME instead of BACK from the task
-you have launched, your task and its activities will be ordered behind the
-home screen without a way to return to them.</p>
-
-<h3>Task Affinities</h3>
-
-<p>In some cases Android needs to know which task an activity belongs to even when
-it is not being launched in to a specific task. This is accomplished through
-task affinities, which provide a unique static name for the task that one or more
-activities are intended to run in. The default task affinity for an activity
-is the name of the .apk package name the activity is implemented in. This
-provides the normally expected behavior, where all of the activities in a
-particular .apk are part of a single application to the user.</p>
-
-<p>When starting a new activity without the
-{@link android.content.Intent#FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
-Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK} flag, task affinities have no impact on the
-task the new activity will run in: it will always run in the task of the
-activity that is starting it. However, if the NEW_TASK flag is being used,
-then the affinity will be used to determine if a task already exists with
-the same affinity. If so, that task will be brought to the front and the
-new activity launched at the top of that task.</p>
-
-<p>This behavior is most useful for situations where you must use the
-NEW_TASK flag, in particular launching activities from status bar notifications
-or home screen shortcuts. The result is that, when the user launches your
-application this way, its current task state will be brought to the foreground,
-and the activity they now want to look at placed on top of it.</p>
-
-<p>You can assign your own task affinities in your manifest's
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestApplication application} tag for
-all activities in the .apk, or the
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestActivity activity} tag of
-individual activities. Some examples of how this can be used are:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li>If your .apk contains multiple top-level applications that the user can
-launch, then you will probably want to assign different affinities to each
-of the activities that the users sees for your .apk. A good convention for
-coming up with distinct names is to append your .apk's package name with
-a colon separated string. For example, the "com.android.contacts" .apk
-may have the affinities "com.android.contacts:Dialer" and
-"com.android.contacts:ContactsList".</ul>
-<li>If you are replacing a notification, shortcut, or other such "inner"
-activity of an application that can be launched from outside of it, you may
-need to explicitly set the taskAffinity of your replacement activity to be
-the same as the application you are replacing. For example, if you are
-replacing the contacts details view (which the user can make and invoke
-shortcuts to), you would want to set the taskAffinity to
-"com.android.contacts".</li>
-</ul>
-
-<h3>Launch Modes and Launch Flags</h3>
-
-<p>The main way you control how activities interact with tasks is through
-the activity's
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestActivity_launchMode launchMode}
-attribute and the {@link android.content.Intent#setFlags flags} associated
-with an Intent. These two parameters can work together in various ways
-to control the outcome of the activity launch, as described in their
-associated documentation. Here we will look at some common use cases and
-combinations of these parameters.</p>
-
-<p>The most common launch mode you will use (besides the default
-<code>standard</code> mode) is <code>singleTop</code>. This does not have
-an impact on tasks; it just avoids starting the same activity multiple times
-on the top of a stack.
-
-<p>The <code>singleTask</code> launch mode has a major
-impact on tasks: it causes the activity to always be started in
-a new task (or its existing task to be brought to the foreground). Using
-this mode requires a lot of care in how you interact with the rest of the
-system, as it impacts every path in to the activity. It should only be used
-with activities that are front doors to the application (that is, which
-support the MAIN action and LAUNCHER category).</p>
-
-<p>The <code>singleInstance</code> launch mode is even more specialized, and
-should only be used in applications that are implemented entirely as one
-activity.</p>
-
-<p>A situation you will often run in to is when another entity (such as the
-{@link android.app.SearchManager} or {@link android.app.NotificationManager})
-starts one of your activities. In this case, the
-{@link android.content.Intent#FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
-Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK} flag must be used, because the activity is
-being started outside of a task (and the application/task may not even
-exist). As described previously, the standard behavior in this situation
-is to bring to the foreground the current task matching the new activity's
-affinity and start the new activity at the top of it. There are, however,
-other types of behavior that you can implement.</p>
-
-<p>One common approach is to also use the
-{@link android.content.Intent#FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP
-Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP} flag in conjunction with NEW_TASK. By doing so,
-if your task is already running, then it will be brought to the foreground,
-all of the activities on its stack cleared except the root activity, and the
-root activity's {@link android.app.Activity#onNewIntent} called with the
-Intent being started. Note that the activity often also use the <code>singleTop</code>
-or <code>singleTask</code> launch mode when using this approach, so that
-the current instance is given the new intent instead of requiring that it
-be destroyed and a new instance started.</p>
-
-<p>Another approach you can take is to set the notification activity's
-<code>android:taskAffinity</code> to the empty string "" (indicating no affinity)
-and setting the
-<code>{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestActivity_noHistory
-android:noHistory}</code> and
-<code>{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestActivity_excludeFromRecents
-android:excludeFromRecents}</code> attributes.
-This approach is useful if you would like the notification
-to take the user to a separate activity describing it, rather than return
-to the application's task. By specifying these attributes, the activity will
-be finished whether the user leaves it with BACK or HOME and it will not
-show up in the recent tasks list; if the <code>noHistory</code> attribute
-isn't specified, pressing HOME will result in the activity and its task
-remaining in the system, possibly with no way to return to it.</p>
-
-<p>Be sure to read the documentation on the
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestActivity_launchMode launchMode attribute}
-and the {@link android.content.Intent#setFlags Intent flags} for the details
-on these options.</p>
-
-<h2 id="Processes">Processes</h2>
-
-<p>In Android, processes are entirely an implementation detail of applications
-and not something the user is normally aware of. Their main uses are simply:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li> Improving stability or security by putting untrusted or unstable code
-into another process.
-<li> Reducing overhead by running the code of multiple .apks in the same
-process.
-<li> Helping the system manage resources by putting heavy-weight code in
-a separate process that can be killed independently of other parts of the
-application.
-</ul>
-
-<p>As described previously, the
-{@link android.R.styleable#AndroidManifestApplication_process process} attribute
-is used to control the process that particular application components run in.
-Note that this attribute can not be used to violate security of the system: if
-two .apks that are not sharing the same user ID try to run in the same process,
-this will not be allowed and different distinct processes will be created for
-each of them.</p>
-
-<p>See the <a href="{@docRoot}devel/security.html">security</a> document for
-more information on these security restrictions.</p>
-
-<h2 id="Threads">Threads</h2>
-
-<p>Every process has one or more threads running in it. In most situations, Android
-avoids creating additional threads in a process, keeping an application
-single-threaded unless it creates its own threads. An important repercussion
-of this is that all calls to {@link android.app.Activity},
-{@link android.content.BroadcastReceiver}, and {@link android.app.Service}
-instances are made only from the main thread of the process they are running in.</p>
-
-<p>Note that a new thread is <strong>not</strong> created for each
-Activity, BroadcastReceiver, Service, or ContentProvider instance:
-these application components are instantiated in the desired process (all in the
-same process unless otherwise specified), in the main thread of that process.
-This means that none of these components (including services) should perform
-long or blocking operations (such as networking calls or computation loops)
-when called by the system, since this will block
-all other components in the process. You can use the standard library
-{@link java.lang.Thread} class or Android's {@link android.os.HandlerThread}
-convenience class to perform long operations on another thread.</p>
-
-<p>There are a few important exceptions to this threading rule:</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li><p>Calls on to an {@link android.os.IBinder} or interface implemented on
-an IBinder are dispatched from the thread calling them or a thread pool in the
-local process if coming from another process, <em>not</em>
-from the main thread of their process. In particular, calls on to the IBinder
-of a {@link android.app.Service} will be called this way. (Though
-calls to methods on Service itself are done from the main thread.)
-This means that <em>implementations of IBinder interfaces must always be
-written in a thread-safe way, since they can be called from any number of
-arbitrary threads at the same time</em>.</p></li>
-
-<li><p>Calls to the main methods of {@link android.content.ContentProvider}
-are dispatched from the calling thread or main thread as with IBinder. The
-specific methods are documented in the ContentProvider class.
-This means that <em>implementations of these methods must always be
-written in a thread-safe way, since they can be called from any number of
-arbitrary threads at the same time</em>.</p></li>
-
-<li><p>Calls on {@link android.view.View} and its subclasses are made from the
-thread that the view's window is running in. Normally this will be the main
-thread of the process, however if you create a thread and show a window from
-there then the window's view hierarchy will be called from that thread.</p></li>
-</ul>

-page.title=Building Blocks
-@jd:body
-<h1>Android Building Blocks</h1>
-
-<p>You can think of an Android application as a collection of components, of
-various kinds. These components are for the most part quite loosely coupled,
-to the degree where you can accurately describe them as a federation of
-components rather than a single cohesive application.</p>
-
-<p>Generally, these components all run in the same system process. It's
-possible (and quite common) to create multiple threads within that process,
-and it's also possible to create completely separate child processes if you
-need to. Such cases are pretty uncommon though, because Android tries very
-hard to make processes transparent to your code.</p>
-
-<p>These are the most important parts of the Android APIs:</p>
-
-<dl>
- <dt><a href="{@docRoot}devel/bblocks-manifest.html">AndroidManifest.xml</a></dt>
- <dd>The AndroidManifest.xml file is the control file that tells the system
- what to do with all the top-level components (specifically activities,
- services, intent receivers, and content providers described below)
- you've created. For instance, this is the
- "glue" that actually specifies which Intents your Activities receive.</dd>
-
- <dt>{@link android.app.Activity Activities}</dt>
- <dd>An Activity is, fundamentally, an object that has a life cycle. An
- Activity is a chunk of code that does some work; if necessary, that work
- can include displaying a UI to the user. It doesn't have to, though - some
- Activities never display UIs. Typically, you'll designate one of your
- application's Activities as the entry point to your application. </dd>
-
-
- <dt>{@link android.view.View Views}</dt>
- <dd>A View is an object that knows how to draw itself to the screen.
- Android user interfaces are comprised of trees of Views. If you want to
- perform some custom graphical technique (as you might if you're writing a
- game, or building some unusual new user interface widget) then you'd
- create a View.</dd>
-
-
- <dt>{@link android.content.Intent Intents}</dt>
- <dd>An Intent is a simple message object that represents an "intention" to
- do something. For example, if your application wants to display a web
- page, it expresses its "Intent" to view the URI by creating an Intent
- instance and handing it off to the system. The system locates some other
- piece of code (in this case, the Browser) that knows how to handle that
- Intent, and runs it. Intents can also be used to broadcast interesting
- events (such as a notification) system-wide.</dd>
-
-
- <dt>{@link android.app.Service Services}</dt>
- <dd>A Service is a body of code that runs in the background. It can run in
- its own process, or in the context of another application's process,
- depending on its needs. Other components "bind" to a Service and invoke
- methods on it via remote procedure calls. An example of a Service is a
- media player; even when the user quits the media-selection UI, she
- probably still intends for her music to keep playing. A Service keeps the
- music going even when the UI has completed.</dd>
-
-
- <dt>{@link android.app.NotificationManager Notifications}</dt>
- <dd>A Notification is a small icon that appears in the status bar. Users
- can interact with this icon to receive information. The most well-known
- notifications are SMS messages, call history, and voicemail, but
- applications can create their own. Notifications are the
- strongly-preferred mechanism for alerting the user of something that needs
- their attention.</dd>
-
- <dt>{@link android.content.ContentProvider ContentProviders}</dt>
- <dd>A ContentProvider is a data storehouse that provides access to data on
- the device; the classic example is the ContentProvider that's used to
- access the user's list of contacts. Your application can access data that
- other applications have exposed via a ContentProvider, and you can also
- define your own ContentProviders to expose data of your own.</dd>

-<p>Android was designed so that most developers will be able to build
-applications using the default settings and not be confronted with difficult
-decisions about security. Android also has a number of security features built
-into the operating system that significantly reduce the frequency and impact of
-application security issues.</p>
-
-<p>Some of the security features that help developers build secure applications
-include:
-<ul>
-<li>The Android Application Sandbox that isolates data and code execution on a
-per-application basis.</li>
-<li>Android application framework with robust implementations of common
-security functionality such as cryptography, permissions, and secure IPC.</li>
-<li>Technologies like ASLR, NX, ProPolice, safe_iop, OpenBSD dlmalloc, OpenBSD
-calloc, and Linux mmap_min_addr to mitigate risks associated with common memory
-management errors</li>
-<li>An encrypted filesystem that can be enabled to protect data on lost or
-stolen devices.</li>
-</ul></p>
-
-<p>Nevertheless, it is important for developers to be familiar with Android
-security best practices to make sure they take advantage of these capabilities
-and to reduce the likelihood of inadvertently introducing security issues that
-can affect their applications.</p>
-
-<p>This document is organized around common APIs and development techniques
-that can have security implications for your application and its users. As
-these best practices are constantly evolving, we recommend you check back
-occasionally throughout your application development process.</p>
-
-<a name="Dalvik"></a>
-<h2>Using Dalvik Code</h2>
-<p>Writing secure code that runs in virtual machines is a well-studied topic
-and many of the issues are not specific to Android. Rather than attempting to
-rehash these topics, we’d recommend that you familiarize yourself with the
-existing literature. Two of the more popular resources are:
-<ul>
-<li><a href="http://www.securingjava.com/toc.html">
-http://www.securingjava.com/toc.html</a></li>
-<li><a
-href="https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Java_Security_Resources">
-https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Java_Security_Resources</a></li>
-</ul></p>
-
-<p>This document is focused on the areas which are Android specific and/or
-different from other environments. For developers experienced with VM
-programming in other environments, there are two broad issues that may be
-different about writing apps for Android:
-<ul>
-<li>Some virtual machines, such as the JVM or .net runtime, act as a security
-boundary, isolating code from the underlying operating system capabilities. On
-Android, the Dalvik VM is not a security boundary -- the application sandbox is
-implemented at the OS level, so Dalvik can interoperate with native code in the
-same application without any security constraints.</li>
-<li>Given the limited storage on mobile devices, it’s common for developers
-to want to build modular applications and use dynamic class loading. When
-doing this consider both the source where you retrieve your application logic
-and where you store it locally. Do not use dynamic class loading from sources
-that are not verified, such as unsecured network sources or external storage,
-since that code can be modified to include malicious behavior.</li>
-</ul></p>
-
-<a name="Native"></a>
-<h2>Using Native Code</h2>
-
-<p>In general, we encourage developers to use the Android SDK for most
-application development, rather than using native code. Applications built
-with native code are more complex, less portable, and more like to include
-common memory corruption errors such as buffer overflows.</p>
-
-<p>Android is built using the Linux kernel and being familiar with Linux
-development security best practices is especially useful if you are going to
-use native code. This document is too short to discuss all of those best
-practices, but one of the most popular resources is “Secure Programming for
-Linux and Unix HOWTO”, available at <a
-href="http://www.dwheeler.com/secure-programs">
-http://www.dwheeler.com/secure-programs</a>.</p>
-
-<p>An important difference between Android and most Linux environments is the
-Application Sandbox. On Android, all applications run in the Application
-Sandbox, including those written with native code. At the most basic level, a
-good way to think about it for developers familiar with Linux is to know that
-every application is given a unique UID with very limited permissions. This is
-discussed in more detail in the <a
-href="http://source.android.com/tech/security/index.html">Android Security
-Overview</a> and you should be familiar with application permissions even if
-you are using native code.</p>
-
-<a name="Data"></a>
-<h2>Storing Data</h2>
-
-<h3>Using internal files</h3>
-
-<p>By default, files created on <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#filesInternal">internal
-storage</a> are only accessible to the application that created the file. This
-protection is implemented by Android and is sufficient for most
-applications.</p>
-
-<p>Use of <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE">
-world writable</a> or <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#MODE_WORLD_READABLE">world
-readable</a> files for IPC is discouraged because it does not provide
-the ability to limit data access to particular applications, nor does it
-provide any control on data format. As an alternative, you might consider using
-a ContentProvider which provides read and write permissions, and can make
-dynamic permission grants on a case-by-case basis.</p>
-
-<p>To provide additional protection for sensitive data, some applications
-choose to encrypt local files using a key that is not accessible to the
-application. (For example, a key can be placed in a {@link java.security.KeyStore} and
-protected with a user password that is not stored on the device). While this
-does not protect data from a root compromise that can monitor the user
-inputting the password, it can provide protection for a lost device without <a
-href="http://source.android.com/tech/encryption/index.html">file system
-encryption</a>.</p>
-
-<h3>Using external storage</h3>
-
-<p>Files created on <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#filesExternal">external
-storage</a>, such as SD Cards, are globally readable and writable. Since
-external storage can be removed by the user and also modified by any
-application, applications should not store sensitive information using
-external storage.</p>
-
-<p>As with data from any untrusted source, applications should perform input
-validation when handling data from external storage (see Input Validation
-section). We strongly recommend that applications not store executables or
-class files on external storage prior to dynamic loading. If an application
-does retrieve executable files from external storage they should be signed and
-cryptographically verified prior to dynamic loading.</p>
-
-<h3>Using content providers</h3>
-
-<p>ContentProviders provide a structured storage mechanism that can be limited
-to your own application, or exported to allow access by other applications. By
-default, a <code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">
-ContentProvider</a></code> is
-<a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/provider-element.html#exported">exported
-</a> for use by other applications. If you do not intend to provide other
-applications with access to your<code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">
-ContentProvider</a></code>, mark them as <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/provider-element.html#exported">
-android:exported=false</a></code> in the application manifest.</p>
-
-<p>When creating a <code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">ContentProvider
-</a></code> that will be exported for use by other applications, you can specify
-a single
-<a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/provider-element.html#prmsn">permission
-</a> for reading and writing, or distinct permissions for reading and writing
-within the manifest. We recommend that you limit your permissions to those
-required to accomplish the task at hand. Keep in mind that it’s usually
-easier to add permissions later to expose new functionality than it is to take
-them away and break existing users.</p>
-
-<p>If you are using a <code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">
-ContentProvider</a></code> for sharing data between applications built by the
-same developer, it is preferable to use
-<a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html#plevel">signature
-level permissions</a>. Signature permissions do not require user confirmation,
-so they provide a better user experience and more controlled access to the
-<code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">
-ContentProvider</a></code>.</p>
-
-<p>ContentProviders can also provide more granular access by declaring the <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/provider-element.html#gprmsn">
-grantUriPermissions</a> element and using the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Intent.html#FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION">FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION</a></code>
-and <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Intent.html#FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION">FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION</a></code>
-flags in the Intent object
-that activates the component. The scope of these permissions can be further
-limited by the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/grant-uri-permission-element.html">
-grant-uri-permission element</a></code>.</p>
-
-<p>When accessing a <code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">
-ContentProvider</a></code>, use parameterized query methods such as <code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html#query(android.net.Uri,%20java.lang.String[],%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String[],%20java.lang.String)">query()</a></code>, <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html#update(android.net.Uri,%20android.content.ContentValues,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String[])">update()</a></code>, and <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html#delete(android.net.Uri,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String[])">delete()</a></code> to avoid
-potential <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection">SQL
-Injection</a> from untrusted data. Note that using parameterized methods is not
-sufficient if the <code>selection</code> is built by concatenating user data
-prior to submitting it to the method.</p>
-
-<p>Do not have a false sense of security about the write permission. Consider
-that the write permission allows SQL statements which make it possible for some
-data to be confirmed using creative <code>WHERE</code> clauses and parsing the
-results. For example, an attacker might probe for presence of a specific phone
-number in a call-log by modifying a row only if that phone number already
-exists. If the content provider data has predictable structure, the write
-permission may be equivalent to providing both reading and writing.</p>
-
-<a name="IPC"></a>
-<h2>Using Interprocess Communication (IPC)</h2>
-
-<p>Some Android applications attempt to implement IPC using traditional Linux
-techniques such as network sockets and shared files. We strongly encourage the
-use of Android system functionality for IPC such as Intents, Binders, Services,
-and Receivers. The Android IPC mechanisms allow you to verify the identity of
-the application connecting to your IPC and set security policy for each IPC
-mechanism.</p>
-
-<p>Many of the security elements are shared across IPC mechanisms. <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver.html">
-Broadcast Receivers</a>, <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/R.styleable.html#AndroidManifestActivity">
-Activities</a>, and <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/R.styleable.html#AndroidManifestService">
-Services</a> are all declared in the application manifest. If your IPC mechanism is
-not intended for use by other applications, set the <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/service-element.html#exported">{@code android:exported}</a>
-property to false. This is useful for applications that consist of multiple processes
-within the same UID, or if you decide late in development that you do not
-actually want to expose functionality as IPC but you don’t want to rewrite
-the code.</p>
-
-<p>If your IPC is intended to be accessible to other applications, you can
-apply a security policy by using the <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/R.styleable.html#AndroidManifestPermission">
-Permission</a> tag. If IPC is between applications built by the same developer,
-it is preferable to use <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html#plevel">signature
-level permissions</a>. Signature permissions do not require user confirmation,
-so they provide a better user experience and more controlled access to the IPC
-mechanism.</p>
-
-<p>One area that can introduce confusion is the use of intent filters. Note
-that Intent filters should not be considered a security feature -- components
-can be invoked directly and may not have data that would conform to the intent
-filter. You should perform input validation within your intent receiver to
-confirm that it is properly formatted for the invoked receiver, service, or
-activity.</p>
-
-<h3>Using intents</h3>
-
-<p>Intents are the preferred mechanism for asynchronous IPC in Android.
-Depending on your application requirements, you might use <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#sendBroadcast(android.content.Intent)">sendBroadcast()</a></code>,
-<code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#sendOrderedBroadcast(android.content.Intent,%20java.lang.String)">sendOrderedBroadcast()</a></code>,
-or direct an intent to a specific application component.</p>
-
-<p>Note that ordered broadcasts can be “consumed” by a recipient, so they
-may not be delivered to all applications. If you are sending an Intent where
-delivery to a specific receiver is required, the intent must be delivered
-directly to the receiver.</p>
-
-<p>Senders of an intent can verify that the recipient has a permission
-specifying a non-Null Permission upon sending. Only applications with that
-Permission will receive the intent. If data within a broadcast intent may be
-sensitive, you should consider applying a permission to make sure that
-malicious applications cannot register to receive those messages without
-appropriate permissions. In those circumstances, you may also consider
-invoking the receiver directly, rather than raising a broadcast.</p>
-
-<h3>Using binder and AIDL interfaces</h3>
-
-<p><a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/os/Binder.html">Binders</a> are the
-preferred mechanism for RPC-style IPC in Android. They provide a well-defined
-interface that enables mutual authentication of the endpoints, if required.</p>
-
-<p>We strongly encourage designing interfaces in a manner that does not require
-interface specific permission checks. Binders are not declared within the
-application manifest, and therefore you cannot apply declarative permissions
-directly to a Binder. Binders generally inherit permissions declared in the
-application manifest for the Service or Activity within which they are
-implemented. If you are creating an interface that requires authentication
-and/or access controls on a specific binder interface, those controls must be
-explicitly added as code in the interface.</p>
-
-<p>If providing an interface that does require access controls, use <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#checkCallingPermission(java.lang.String)">checkCallingPermission()</a></code>
-to verify whether the
-caller of the Binder has a required permission. This is especially important
-before accessing a Service on behalf of the caller, as the identify of your
-application is passed to other interfaces. If invoking an interface provided
-by a Service, the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#bindService(android.content.Intent,%20android.content.ServiceConnection,%20int)">bindService()</a></code>
- invocation may fail if you do not have permission to access the given Service.
- If calling an interface provided locally by your own application, it may be
-useful to use the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/os/Binder.html#clearCallingIdentity()">
-clearCallingIdentity()</a></code> to satisfy internal security checks.</p>
-
-<h3>Using broadcast receivers</h3>
-
-<p>Broadcast receivers are used to handle asynchronous requests initiated via
-an intent.</p>
-
-<p>By default, receivers are exported and can be invoked by any other
-application. If your <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver.html">
-BroadcastReceivers</a></code> is intended for use by other applications, you
-may want to apply security permissions to receivers using the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/receiver-element.html">
-&lt;receiver&gt;</a></code> element within the application manifest. This will
-prevent applications without appropriate permissions from sending an intent to
-the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver.html">
-BroadcastReceivers</a></code>.</p>
-
-<h3>Using Services</h3>
-
-<p>Services are often used to supply functionality for other applications to
-use. Each service class must have a corresponding <service> declaration in its
-package's AndroidManifest.xml.</p>
-
-<p>By default, Services are exported and can be invoked by any other
-application. Services can be protected using the <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/service-element.html#prmsn">{@code android:permission}</a>
-attribute
-within the manifest’s <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/service-element.html">
-&lt;service&gt;</a></code> tag. By doing so, other applications will need to declare
-a corresponding <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/uses-permission-element.html">&lt;uses-permission&gt;</a>
-</code> element in their own manifest to be
-able to start, stop, or bind to the service.</p>
-
-<p>A Service can protect individual IPC calls into it with permissions, by
-calling <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/Context.html#checkCallingPermission(java.lang.String)">checkCallingPermission()</a></code>
-before executing
-the implementation of that call. We generally recommend using the
-declarative permissions in the manifest, since those are less prone to
-oversight.</p>
-
-<h3>Using Activities</h3>
-
-<p>Activities are most often used for providing the core user-facing
-functionality of an application. By default, Activities are exported and
-invokable by other applications only if they have an intent filter or binder
-declared. In general, we recommend that you specifically declare a Receiver or
-Service to handle IPC, since this modular approach reduces the risk of exposing
-functionality that is not intended for use by other applications.</p>
-
-<p>If you do expose an Activity for purposes of IPC, the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#prmsn">android:permission</a></code>
-attribute in the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html">
-&lt;activity&gt;</a></code> declaration in the application manifest can be used to
-restrict access to only those applications which have the stated
-permissions.</p>
-
-<a name="Permissions"></a>
-<h2>Using Permissions</h2>
-
-<h3>Requesting Permissions</h3>
-
-<p>We recommend minimizing the number of permissions requested by an
-application. Not having access to sensitive permissions reduces the risk of
-inadvertently misusing those permissions, can improve user adoption, and makes
-applications less attractive targets for attackers.</p>
-
-<p>If it is possible to design your application in a way that does not require
-a permission, that is preferable. For example, rather than requesting access
-to device information to create an identifier, create a <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/java/util/UUID.html">GUID</a> for your application.
-(This specific example is also discussed in Handling User Data) Or, rather than
-using external storage, store data in your application directory.</p>
-
-<p>If a permission is not required, do not request it. This sounds simple, but
-there has been quite a bit of research into the frequency of over-requesting
-permissions. If you’re interested in the subject you might start with this
-research paper published by U.C. Berkeley: <a
-href="http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2011/EECS-2011-48.pdf">
-http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Pubs/TechRpts/2011/EECS-2011-48.pdf</a></p>
-
-<p>In addition to requesting permissions, your application can use <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html">permissions</a>
-to protect IPC that is security sensitive and will be exposed to other
-applications -- such as a <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html">
-ContentProvider</a></code>. In general, we recommend using access controls
-other than user confirmed permissions where possible since permissions can
-be confusing for users. For example, consider using the <a
-href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html#plevel">signature
-protection level</a> on permissions for IPC communication between applications
-provided by a single developer.</p>
-
-<p>Do not cause permission re-delegation. This occurs when an app exposes data
-over IPC that is only available because it has a specific permission, but does
-not require that permission of any clients of it’s IPC interface. More
-details on the potential impacts, and frequency of this type of problem is
-provided in this research paper published at USENIX: <a
-href="http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~afelt/felt_usenixsec2011.pdf">http://www.cs.be
-rkeley.edu/~afelt/felt_usenixsec2011.pdf</a></p>
-
-<h3>Creating Permissions</h3>
-
-<p>Generally, you should strive to create as few permissions as possible while
-satisfying your security requirements. Creating a new permission is relatively
-uncommon for most applications, since <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/Manifest.permission.html">system-defined
-permissions</a> cover many situations. Where appropriate,
-perform access checks using existing permissions.</p>
-
-<p>If you must create a new permission, consider whether you can accomplish
-your task with a Signature permission. Signature permissions are transparent
-to the user and only allow access by applications signed by the same developer
-as application performing the permission check. If you create a Dangerous
-permission, then the user needs to decide whether to install the application.
-This can be confusing for other developers, as well as for users.</p>
-
-<p>If you create a Dangerous permission, there are a number of complexities
-that you need to consider.
-<ul>
-<li>The permission must have a string that concisely expresses to a user the
-security decision they will be required to make.</li>
-<li>The permission string must be localized to many different languages.</li>
-<li>Uses may choose not to install an application because a permission is
-confusing or perceived as risky.</li>
-<li>Applications may request the permission when the creator of the permission
-has not been installed.</li>
-</ul></p>
-
-<p>Each of these poses a significant non-technical challenge for an application
-developer, which is why we discourage the use of Dangerous permission.</p>
-
-<a name="Networking"></a>
-<h2>Using Networking</h2>
-
-<h3>Using IP Networking</h3>
-
-<p>Networking on Android is not significantly different from Linux
-environments. The key consideration is making sure that appropriate protocols
-are used for sensitive data, such as <a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/javax/net/ssl/HttpsURLConnection.html">HTTPS</a> for
-web traffic. We prefer use of HTTPS over HTTP anywhere that HTTPS is
-supported on the server, since mobile devices frequently connect on networks
-that are not secured, such as public WiFi hotspots.</p>
-
-<p>Authenticated, encrypted socket-level communication can be easily
-implemented using the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/javax/net/ssl/SSLSocket.html">SSLSocket</a></code>
-class. Given the frequency with which Android devices connect to unsecured
-wireless networks using WiFi, the use of secure networking is strongly
-encouraged for all applications.</p>
-
-<p>We have seen some applications use <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localhost">localhost</a> network ports for
-handling sensitive IPC. We discourage this approach since these interfaces are
-accessible by other applications on the device. Instead, use an Android IPC
-mechanism where authentication is possible such as a Service and Binder. (Even
-worse than using loopback is to bind to INADDR_ANY since then your application
-may receive requests from anywhere. We’ve seen that, too.)</p>
-
-<p>Also, one common issue that warrants repeating is to make sure that you do
-not trust data downloaded from HTTP or other insecure protocols. This includes
-validation of input in <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">WebView</a></code> and
-any responses to intents issued against HTTP.</p>
-
-<h3>Using Telephony Networking</h3>
-
-<p>SMS is the telephony protocol most frequently used by Android developers.
-Developers should keep in mind that this protocol was primarily designed for
-user-to-user communication and is not well-suited for some application
-purposes. Due to the limitations of SMS, we strongly recommend the use of <a
-href="http://code.google.com/android/c2dm/">C2DM</a> and IP networking for
-sending data messages to devices.</p>
-
-<p>Many developers do not realize that SMS is not encrypted or strongly
-authenticated on the network or on the device. In particular, any SMS receiver
-should expect that a malicious user may have sent the SMS to your application
--- do not rely on unauthenticated SMS data to perform sensitive commands.
-Also, you should be aware that SMS may be subject to spoofing and/or
-interception on the network. On the Android-powered device itself, SMS
-messages are transmitted as Broadcast intents, so they may be read or captured
-by other applications that have the READ_SMS permission.</p>
-
-<a name="DynamicCode"></a>
-<h2>Dynamically Loading Code</h2>
-
-<p>We strongly discourage loading code from outside of the application APK.
-Doing so significantly increases the likelihood of application compromise due
-to code injection or code tampering. It also adds complexity around version
-management and application testing. Finally, it can make it impossible to
-verify the behavior of an application, so it may be prohibited in some
-environments.</p>
-
-<p>If your application does dynamically load code, the most important thing to
-keep in mind about dynamically loaded code is that it runs with the same
-security permissions as the application APK. The user made a decision to
-install your application based on your identity, and they are expecting that
-you provide any code run within the application, including code that is
-dynamically loaded.</p>
-
-<p>The major security risk associated with dynamically loading code is that the
-code needs to come from a verifiable source. If the modules are included
-directly within your APK, then they cannot be modified by other applications.
-This is true whether the code is a native library or a class being loaded using
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/dalvik/system/DexClassLoader.html">
-<code>DexClassLoader</code></a>. We have seen many instances of applications
-attempting to load code from insecure locations, such as downloaded from the
-network over unencrypted protocols or from world writable locations such as
-external storage. These locations could allow someone on the network to modify
-the content in transit, or another application on a users device to modify the
-content, respectively.</p>
-
-
-<h3>Using WebView</h3>
-
-<p>Since WebView consumes web content that can include HTML and JavaScript,
-improper use can introduce common web security issues such as <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_site_scripting">cross-site-scripting</a
-> (JavaScript injection). Android includes a number of mechanisms to reduce
-the scope of these potential issues by limiting the capability of WebView to
-the minimum functionality required by your application.</p>
-
-<p>If your application does not directly use JavaScript within a <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">WebView</a></code>, do
-not call
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebSettings.html#setJavaScriptEnabled(boolean)">
-<code>setJavaScriptEnabled()</code></a>. We have seen this method invoked
-in sample code that might be repurposed in production application -- so
-remove it if necessary. By default, <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">WebView</a></code> does
-not execute JavaScript so cross-site-scripting is not possible.</p>
-
-<p>Use <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#addJavascriptInterface(java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.String)">addJavaScriptInterface()</a></code> with
-particular care because it allows JavaScript to invoke operations that are
-normally reserved for Android applications. Only expose <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#addJavascriptInterface(java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.String)">addJavaScriptInterface()</a></code> to
-sources from which all input is trustworthy. If untrusted input is allowed,
-untrusted JavaScript may be able to invoke Android methods. In general, we
-recommend only exposing <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#addJavascriptInterface(java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.String)">addJavaScriptInterface()</a></code> to
-JavaScript that is contained within your application APK.</p>
-
-<p>Do not trust information downloaded over HTTP, use HTTPS instead. Even if
-you are connecting only to a single website that you trust or control, HTTP is
-subject to <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack">MiTM</a> attacks
-and interception of data. Sensitive capabilities using <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#addJavascriptInterface(java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.String)">addJavaScriptInterface()</a></code> should
-not ever be exposed to unverified script downloaded over HTTP. Note that even
-with the use of HTTPS,
-<code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#addJavascriptInterface(java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.String)">addJavaScriptInterface()</a></code>
-increases the attack surface of your application to include the server
-infrastructure and all CAs trusted by the Android-powered device.</p>
-
-<p>If your application accesses sensitive data with a <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">WebView</a></code>, you
-may want to use the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#clearCache(boolean)">
-clearCache()</a></code> method to delete any files stored locally. Server side
-headers like no-cache can also be used to indicate that an application should
-not cache particular content.</p>
-
-<a name="Input"></a>
-<h2>Performing Input Validation</h2>
-
-<p>Insufficient input validation is one of the most common security problems
-affecting applications, regardless of what platform they run on. Android does
-have platform-level countermeasures that reduce the exposure of applications to
-input validation issues, you should use those features where possible. Also
-note that selection of type-safe languages tends to reduce the likelihood of
-input validation issues. We strongly recommend building your applications with
-the Android SDK.</p>
-
-<p>If you are using native code, then any data read from files, received over
-the network, or received from an IPC has the potential to introduce a security
-issue. The most common problems are <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_overflow">buffer overflows</a>, <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_free#Use_after_free">use after
-free</a>, and <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-by-one_error">off-by-one errors</a>.
-Android provides a number of technologies like ASLR and DEP that reduce the
-exploitability of these errors, but they do not solve the underlying problem.
-These can be prevented by careful handling of pointers and managing of
-buffers.</p>
-
-<p>Dynamic, string based languages such as JavaScript and SQL are also subject
-to input validation problems due to escape characters and <a
-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_injection">script injection</a>.</p>
-
-<p>If you are using data within queries that are submitted to SQL Database or a
-Content Provider, SQL Injection may be an issue. The best defense is to use
-parameterized queries, as is discussed in the ContentProviders section.
-Limiting permissions to read-only or write-only can also reduce the potential
-for harm related to SQL Injection.</p>
-
-<p>If you are using <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">WebView</a></code>, then
-you must consider the possibility of XSS. If your application does not
-directly use JavaScript within a <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/webkit/WebView.html">WebView</a></code>, do
-not call setJavaScriptEnabled() and XSS is no longer possible. If you must
-enable JavaScript then the WebView section provides other security best
-practices.</p>
-
-<p>If you cannot use the security features above, we strongly recommend the use
-of well-structured data formats and verifying that the data conforms to the
-expected format. While blacklisting of characters or character-replacement can
-be an effective strategy, these techniques are error-prone in practice and
-should be avoided when possible.</p>
-
-<a name="UserData"></a>
-<h2>Handling User Data</h2>
-
-<p>In general, the best approach is to minimize use of APIs that access
-sensitive or personal user data. If you have access to data and can avoid
-storing or transmitting the information, do not store or transmit the data.
-Finally, consider if there is a way that your application logic can be
-implemented using a hash or non-reversible form of the data. For example, your
-application might use the hash of an an email address as a primary key, to
-avoid transmitting or storing the email address. This reduces the chances of
-inadvertently exposing data, and it also reduces the chance of attackers
-attempting to exploit your application.</p>
-
-<p>If your application accesses personal information such as passwords or
-usernames, keep in mind that some jurisdictions may require you to provide a
-privacy policy explaining your use and storage of that data. So following the
-security best practice of minimizing access to user data may also simplify
-compliance.</p>
-
-<p>You should also consider whether your application might be inadvertently
-exposing personal information to other parties such as third-party components
-for advertising or third-party services used by your application. If you don't
-know why a component or service requires a personal information, don’t
-provide it. In general, reducing the access to personal information by your
-application will reduce the potential for problems in this area.</p>
-
-<p>If access to sensitive data is required, evaluate whether that information
-must be transmitted to a server, or whether the operation can be performed on
-the client. Consider running any code using sensitive data on the client to
-avoid transmitting user data.</p>
-
-<p>Also, make sure that you do not inadvertently expose user data to other
-application on the device through overly permissive IPC, world writable files,
-or network sockets. This is a special case of permission redelegation,
-discussed in the Requesting Permissions section.</p>
-
-<p>If a GUID is required, create a large, unique number and store it. Do not
-use phone identifiers such as the phone number or IMEI which may be associated
-with personal information. This topic is discussed in more detail in the <a
-href="http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/03/identifying-app-installations.html">Android Developer Blog</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Application developers should be careful writing to on-device logs.
-In Android, logs are a shared resource, and are available
-to an application with the
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/Manifest.permission.html#READ_LOGS">
-<code>READ_LOGS</code></a> permission. Even though the phone log data
-is temporary and erased on reboot, inappropriate logging of user information
-could inadvertently leak user data to other applications.</p>
-
-
-<h3>Handling Credentials</h3>
-
-<p>In general, we recommend minimizing the frequency of asking for user
-credentials -- to make phishing attacks more conspicuous, and less likely to be
-successful. Instead use an authorization token and refresh it.</p>
-
-<p>Where possible, username and password should not be stored on the device.
-Instead, perform initial authentication using the username and password
-supplied by the user, and then use a short-lived, service-specific
-authorization token.</p>
-
-<p>Services that will be accessible to multiple applications should be accessed
-using <code>
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/android/accounts/AccountManager.html">
-AccountManager</a></code>. If possible, use the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/accounts/AccountManager.html">
-AccountManager</a></code> class to invoke a cloud-based service and do not store
-passwords on the device.</p>
-
-<p>After using <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/accounts/AccountManager.html">
-AccountManager</a></code> to retrieve an Account, check the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/accounts/Account.html#CREATOR">CREATOR</a>
-</code> before passing in any credentials, so that you do not inadvertently pass
-credentials to the wrong application.</p>
-
-<p>If credentials are to be used only by applications that you create, then you
-can verify the application which accesses the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/accounts/AccountManager.html">
-AccountManager</a></code> using <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager.html#checkSignatures(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String)">checkSignature()</a></code>.
-Alternatively, if only one application will use the credential, you might use a
-{@link java.security.KeyStore} for
-storage.</p>
-
-<a name="Crypto"></a>
-<h2>Using Cryptography</h2>
-
-<p>In addition to providing data isolation, supporting full-filesystem
-encryption, and providing secure communications channels Android provides a
-wide array of algorithms for protecting data using cryptography.</p>
-
-<p>In general, try to use the highest level of pre-existing framework
-implementation that can support your use case. If you need to securely
-retrieve a file from a known location, a simple HTTPS URI may be adequate and
-require no knowledge of cryptography on your part. If you need a secure
-tunnel, consider using
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/javax/net/ssl/HttpsURLConnection.html">
-<code>HttpsURLConnection</code></a> or <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/javax/net/ssl/SSLSocket.html">SSLSocket</a></code>,
-rather than writing your own protocol.</p>
-
-<p>If you do find yourself needing to implement your own protocol, we strongly
-recommend that you not implement your own cryptographic algorithms. Use
-existing cryptographic algorithms such as those in the implementation of AES or
-RSA provided in the <code><a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/javax/crypto/Cipher.html">Cipher</a></code> class.</p>
-
-<p>Use a secure random number generator (
-<a href="{@docRoot}reference/java/security/SecureRandom.html">
-<code>SecureRandom</code></a>) to initialize any cryptographic keys (<a
-href="{@docRoot}reference/javax/crypto/KeyGenerator.html">
-<code>KeyGenerator</code></a>). Use of a key that is not generated with a secure random
-number generator significantly weakens the strength of the algorithm, and may
-allow offline attacks.</p>
-
-<p>If you need to store a key for repeated use, use a mechanism like {@link java.security.KeyStore} that
-provides a mechanism for long term storage and retrieval of cryptographic
-keys.</p>
-
-<h2>Conclusion</h2>
-
-<p>Android provides developers with the ability to design applications with a
-broad range of security requirements. These best practices will help you make
-sure that your application takes advantage of the security benefits provided by
-the platform.</p>

-practices with other developers in the <a

-page.title=Notifications
-parent.title=User Interface
-parent.link=../index.html
-@jd:body
-
-<p>Several types of situations may arise that require you to notify the user
-about an event that occurs in your application. Some events require the user to respond
-and others do not. For example:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>When an event such as saving a file is complete, a small message
-should appear to confirm that the save was successful.</li>
- <li>If the application is running in the background and needs the user's attention,
-the application should create a notification that allows the user to respond at
-his or her convenience.</li>
- <li>If the application is
-performing work that the user must wait for (such as loading a file),
-the application should show a hovering progress wheel or bar.</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>Each of these notification tasks can be achieved using a different technique:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>A <a href="#Toast">Toast Notification</a>, for brief messages that come
- from the background.</li>
- <li>A <a href="#StatusBar">Status Notification</a>, for persistent reminders
- that come from the background and request the user's response.</li>
- <li>A <a href="#Dialog">Dialog Notification</a>, for Activity-related notifications.</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>This document summarizes each of these techniques for notifying the user and includes
-links to full documentation.</p>
-
-
-<h2 id="Toast">Toast Notification</h2>
-
-<img src="{@docRoot}images/toast.png" alt="" style="float:right" />
-
-<p>A toast notification is a message that pops up on the surface of the window.
-It only fills the amount of space required for the message and the user's current
-activity remains visible and interactive. The notification automatically fades in and
-out, and does not accept interaction events. Because a toast can be created from a background
-{@link android.app.Service}, it appears even if the application isn't visible.</p>
-
-<p>A toast is best for short text messages, such as "File saved,"
-when you're fairly certain the user is paying attention
-to the screen. A toast can not accept user interaction events; if you'd like
-the user to respond and take action, consider using a
-<a href="#StatusBar">Status Notification</a> instead.</p>
-
-<p>For more information, refer to <a href="toasts.html">Toast Notifications</a>.</p>
-
-
-<h2 id="StatusBar">Status Notification</h2>
-
-<img src="{@docRoot}images/notifications_window.png" alt="" style="float:right; clear:right;" />
-
-<p>A status notification adds an icon to the system's status bar
-(with an optional ticker-text message) and an expanded message in the "Notifications" window.
-When the user selects the expanded message, Android fires an
-{@link android.content.Intent} that is defined by the notification (usually to launch an
-{@link android.app.Activity}).
-You can also configure the notification to alert the user with a sound, a vibration, and flashing
-lights on the device.</p>
-
-<p>This kind of notification is ideal when your application is working in
-a background {@link android.app.Service} and needs to
-notify the user about an event. If you need to alert the user about an event that occurs
-while your Activity is still in focus, consider using a
-<a href="#Dialog">Dialog Notification</a> instead.</p>
-
-<p>For more information, refer to
-<a href="notifications.html">Status Notifications</a>.</p>
-
-
-<h2 id="Dialog">Dialog Notification</h2>
-
-<img src="{@docRoot}images/dialog_progress_spinning.png" alt="" style="float:right" />
-
-<p>A dialog is usually a small window that appears in front of the current Activity.
-The underlying Activity loses focus and the dialog accepts all user interaction.
-Dialogs are normally used
-for notifications and short activities that directly relate to the application in progress.</p>
-
-<p>You should use a dialog when you need to show a progress bar or a short
-message that requires confirmation from the user (such as an alert with "OK" and "Cancel" buttons).
-You can use also use dialogs as integral components
-in your application's UI and for other purposes besides notifications.
-For a complete discussion on all the available types of dialogs,
-including its uses for notifications, refer to
-<a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html">Dialogs</a>.</p>
