Hey,
i have made a native Android app with Eclipse which controls a RFID USB scanner.
These permissions are requested through the AndroidManifest.xml in the intent-filter and xml device filter tag, so when i plug the usb device in the android (minix) the permissions are given once and the scanner works perfectly.
Example of the manifest (in the native Android app):
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name=".Main1Activity"
android:label="@string/title_activity_main1"
android:launchMode="singleTask"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED" />
<action android:name="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_DETACHED" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED"
android:resource="@xml/device_filter" />
<meta-data
android:name="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_DETACHED"
android:resource="@xml/device_filter" />
</activity>
</application>
The problem is when i build the ANE and use this in an AIR Android app, these USB permissions are not requested so i don't have access to the device.
What should i place in the AIR Android manifest to access the USB device, i cannot use the intent-filters and meta-data because i don't have access to the XML?
Thanks for your help 🙂
