ForegroundServiceManager

public class ForegroundServiceManager extends Object

This class allows clients to share a persistent notification by using a common notification id. If a client wants to share a persistent notification, they should use startForeground(Service) and stopForeground(Service) to move their services in and out of the foreground. Clients can customize the notification by implementing the NotificationContentProviderBase abstract class before calling NavigationApi.initForegroundServiceManagerProvider(Application, Integer, NotificationContentProvider) or more simply with NavigationApi.initForegroundServiceManagerMessageAndIntent(Application, Integer, String, Intent). Otherwise, a default notification will be provided.

Public Method Summary
