Overview

Container class for information about the host the app is connected to.

Apps can use this information to determine how they will respond to the host. For example, a host which is not recognized could receive a message screen while an authorized host could receive full access to the app's capabilities.

The package name and uid can used to query the system package manager for a signature or to determine if the host has a system signature.

The host API level can be used to adjust the models exchanged with the host to those valid for the specific host version the app is connected to.
