Public methods

connect

Added in API level 29
Deprecated in API level 29 
public void connect ()

This method was deprecated in API level 29.
this method is not need if this object is created via createCar(android.content.Context, android.os.Handler).

Connect to car service. This can be called while it is disconnected.

Throws
IllegalStateException If connection is still on-going from previous connect call or it is already connected

createCar

Added in API level 29 
public static Car createCar (Context context, 
                Handler handler)

Creates new Car object which connected synchronously to Car Service and ready to use.

Instance created with this should be disconnected from car service by calling disconnect() before the passed {code Context} is released.

Parameters
context Context: This should not be null. If you are passing ContextWrapper, make sure that its base context is not null as well. Otherwise it will throw NullPointerException.
handler Handler: the handler on which the manager's callbacks will be executed, or null to execute on the application's main thread.
Returns
Car Car object if operation succeeded, otherwise null.

createCar

Added in API level 29 
public static Car createCar (Context context)

Creates new Car object which connected synchronously to Car Service and ready to use.

Instance created with this should be disconnected from car service by calling disconnect() before the passed {code Context} is released.

Parameters
context Context: application's context
Returns
Car Car object if operation succeeded, otherwise null.

createCar

Added in API level 29
Deprecated in API level 29 
public static Car createCar (Context context, 
                ServiceConnection serviceConnectionListener)

This method was deprecated in API level 29.
use createCar(android.content.Context, android.os.Handler) instead.

A factory method that creates Car instance for all Car API access using main thread Looper.

Instance created with this should be disconnected from car service by calling disconnect() before the passed {code Context} is released.

Parameters
context Context

serviceConnectionListener ServiceConnection

Returns
Car

createCar

Added in API level 30 
public static Car createCar (Context context, 
                Handler handler, 
                long waitTimeoutMs, 
                Car.CarServiceLifecycleListener statusChangeListener)

Creates new Car object with CarServiceLifecycleListener.

Instance created with this should be disconnected from car service by calling disconnect() before the passed {code Context} is released.

If car service is ready inside this call and if the caller is running in the main thread, CarServiceLifecycleListener#onLifecycleChanged(Car, boolean) will be called with ready set to be true. Otherwise, CarServiceLifecycleListener#onLifecycleChanged(Car, boolean) will be called from the main thread later.

This call can block up to specified waitTimeoutMs to wait for car service to be ready. If car service is not ready within the given time, it will return a Car instance in disconnected state. Blocking main thread forever can lead into getting ANR (Application Not Responding) killing from system and should not be used if the app is supposed to survive across the crash / restart of car service. It can be still useful in case the app cannot do anything without car service being ready. In any waiting, if the thread is getting interrupted, it will return immediately.

Note that returned Car object is not guaranteed to be connected when there is a limited timeout. Regardless of returned car being connected or not, it is recommended to implement all car related initialization inside CarServiceLifecycleListener#onLifecycleChanged(Car, boolean) and avoid the needs to check if returned Car is connected or not from returned Car.

Parameters
context Context: This should not be null. If you are passing ContextWrapper, make sure that its base context is not null as well. Otherwise it will throw NullPointerException.
handler Handler: dispatches all Car*Manager events to this Handler. Exception is CarServiceLifecycleListener which will be always dispatched to main thread. Passing null leads into dispatching all Car*Manager callbacks to main thread as well.
waitTimeoutMs long: Setting this to CAR_WAIT_TIMEOUT_DO_NOT_WAIT will guarantee that the API does not wait for the car service at all. Setting this to to CAR_WAIT_TIMEOUT_WAIT_FOREVER will block the call forever until the car service is ready. Setting any positive value will be interpreted as timeout value.
statusChangeListener Car.CarServiceLifecycleListener

Returns
Car

createCar

Added in API level 29
Deprecated in API level 29 
public static Car createCar (Context context, 
                ServiceConnection serviceConnectionListener,

Instance created with this should be disconnected from car service by calling disconnect() before the passed {code Context} is released.

Parameters
context Context: This should not be null. If you are passing ContextWrapper, make sure that its base context is not null as well. Otherwise it will throw NullPointerException.
serviceConnectionListener ServiceConnection: listener for monitoring service connection.
handler Handler: the handler on which the callback should execute, or null to execute on the service's main thread. Note: the service connection listener will be always on the main thread regardless of the handler given.
Returns
Car Car instance if system is in car environment and returns null otherwise.

disconnect

Added in API level 29
