AlarmManager的使用机制有的称呼为全局定时器,有的称呼为闹钟。通过对它的使用,个人觉得叫全局定时器比较合适,其实它的作用和Timer有点相似。都有两种相似的用法:(1)在指定时长后执行某项操作(2)周期性的执行某项操作
AlarmManager对象配合Intent使用,可以定时的开启一个Activity,发送一个BroadCast,或者开启一个Service.
下面的代码详细的介绍了两种定时方式的使用:
(1)在指定时长后执行某项操作
//操作:发送一个广播,广播接收后Toast提示定时操作完成Intent intent = new Intent(Main. this , alarmreceiver. class );
intent.setAction( " short " );
PendingIntent sender =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(Main. this , 0 , intent, 0 );
//设 定一个五秒后的时间
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, 5 );
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarm.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), sender);
// 或者以下面方式简化
// alarm.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis()+5*1000, sender);
Toast.makeText(Main. this , " 五秒后alarm开启 " , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
//注意:receiver记得在manifest.xml注册

public static class alarmreceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (intent.getAction().equals( " short " )){
Toast.makeText(context, " short alarm " , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(context, " repeating alarm " ,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
(2)周期性的执行某项操作
![](https://i-blog.csdnimg.cn/blog_migrate/81178cc93a2a3bb5048d90d76e7ec935.gif)
Intent intent = new Intent(Main. this , alarmreceiver. class );
intent.setAction( " repeating " );
PendingIntent sender = PendingIntent
.getBroadcast(Main. this , 0 , intent, 0 );
//开始时间
long firstime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);//5秒一个周期,不停的发送广播
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP
, firstime, 5 * 1000 , sender);
AlarmManager的setRepeating()相当于Timer的Schedule(task,delay,peroid);有点差异的地方时Timer这个方法是指定延迟多长时间
以后开始周期性的执行task;
AlarmManager的取消:(其中需要注意的是取消的Intent必须与启动Intent保持绝对一致才能支持取消AlarmManager)

Intent intent = new Intent(Main. this , alarmreceiver. class );
intent.setAction( " repeating " );
PendingIntent sender = PendingIntent
.getBroadcast(Main. this , 0 , intent, 0 );
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarm.cancel(sender);
