Overview

Helper class for generating large-format notifications that include a lot of text.
If the platform does not provide large-format notifications, this method has no effect. The user will always see the normal notification view.
This class is a "rebuilder": It attaches to a Builder object and modifies its behavior, like so:

 Notification notification = new Notification.Builder(mContext)
     .setContentTitle("New mail from " + sender.toString())
     .setContentText(subject)
     .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.new_mail)
     .setLargeIcon(aBitmap)
     .setStyle(new Notification.BigTextStyle()
         .bigText(aVeryLongString))
     .build();
 

Summary

Constructors

Methods

Overrides ContentTitle in the big form of the template. This defaults to the value passed to setContentTitle().

Set the first line of text after the detail section in the big form of the template.

Provide the longer text to be displayed in the big form of the template in place of the content text.

Applies the compat style data to the framework Notification in a backwards compatible way. All other data should be stored within the Notification's extras.

This is called with the extras of the framework Notification during the NotificationCompat.Builder.build() process, after apply() has been called. This means that you only need to add data which won't be populated by the framework Notification which was built so far. Moreover, recovering builders and styles is only supported at API 19 and above, no implementation is required for current BigTextStyle, BigPictureStyle, or InboxStyle.
