Re: [android-developers] Re: can _ever_ the intent received by a BroadcastReceiver onReceive() method be null?

I suspect it can't be null by construction - I just can't pin it down in code (or in docs)

It's nice to be sure

Can somebody point to the relevant code parts ?

I mean what paths lead to the onReceive being triggered ? Can we have a null intent in any of them ?

Do you ever check the intent for being null and if not why ?

Here's what you do. Assume it will not be null, then use ACRA or some other bug-reporting tool to handle uncaught exceptions. If you get a null pointer exception from here, you know it can be null.

You're welcome.
