WallpaperService.Engine Class

Definition

The actual implementation of a wallpaper.

[Android.Runtime.Register("android/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine", DoNotGenerateAcw=true)]
public class WallpaperService.Engine : Java.Lang.Object

WallpaperService.Engine
Attributes

Remarks

The actual implementation of a wallpaper. A wallpaper service may have multiple instances running (for example as a real wallpaper and as a preview), each of which is represented by its own Engine instance. You must implement WallpaperService#onCreateEngine() to return your concrete Engine implementation.

Constructors

Name Description
WallpaperService.Engine(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)

A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.

WallpaperService.Engine(WallpaperService)

Initializes an engine associated with the specified wallpaper service.

Properties

Name Description
Class

Returns the runtime class of this Object.

(Inherited from Object)
DesiredMinimumHeight

Convenience for WallpaperManager#getDesiredMinimumHeight() WallpaperManager.getDesiredMinimumHeight(), returning the height that the system would like this wallpaper to run in.

DesiredMinimumWidth

Convenience for WallpaperManager#getDesiredMinimumWidth() WallpaperManager.getDesiredMinimumWidth(), returning the width that the system would like this wallpaper to run in.

DisplayContext

The Context with resources that match the current display the wallpaper is on.

Handle

The handle to the underlying Android instance.

(Inherited from Object)
IsPreview

Returns true if this engine is running in preview mode -- that is, it is being shown to the user before they select it as the actual wallpaper.

IsVisible

Return whether the wallpaper is currently visible to the user, this is the last value supplied to #onVisibilityChanged(boolean).

Gets the identity hash code assigned to this Java peer by the interop runtime.

(Inherited from Object)
JniManagedPeerState (Inherited from JavaObject)
JniPeerMembers

This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

PeerReference

Gets the JNI object reference for this Java peer.

(Inherited from Object)
SurfaceHolder

Provides access to the surface in which this wallpaper is drawn.

ThresholdClass

This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

ThresholdType

This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

WallpaperFlags

Returns the current wallpaper flags indicating which screen this Engine is rendering to.
