Android - C2DM.jar file missing

Question

I am building fresh new project for Android with using C2DM. I cannot use

import com.google.android.c2dm.C2DMessaging;

because I haven't added c2dm.jar file as a external library. Is it somewhere available for download?

Thanks

Is that library even necessary? C2DM is all string-based, you can implement it without any libraries. — Seva Alekseyev, Jan 21 '12 at 06:06

I like to use the code provided by Google. You can get it via the Google Eclipse plugin, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/9228455/734687 for a detailled installation and also for a current caveeat.

You really don't need the jar file or need to include it your code. All you need is to define a BroadcastReceiver to listen to com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE and com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION events and declare the receiver in your manifest.

Also need to add permissions

<uses-permission android:name="com.shopholler.android.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE" />

Example of defining the receiver in the manifest.

<receiver android:name=".c2dmtest.C2DMMessageReceiver"
             android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" >
            <intent-filter >
                <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" >
                </action>
                <category android:name="com.shopholler.android" />
            </intent-filter>
</receiver>

Note for C2DM to work you need Android 2.2 + market installed.
