| Parameters || |----------------------------|----------------| | `activityClassToIntercept` | `Class`
| ## Public methods ### create ``` Activity create (ClassLoader classLoader, String className, Intent intent) ``` This method can be used to provide activity instance while intercepting activity creation for a particular activity in response to a given intent.
| Parameters || |---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `classLoader` | `ClassLoader`: The ClassLoader with which to instantiate the object
| | `className` | `String`: The name of the class implementing the Activity object
| | `intent` | `Intent`: The Intent object that specified the activity class being instantiated.
| | Returns || |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------| | [Activity](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html) | The newly instantiated Activity object.
| ### getActivityClassToIntercept ``` Class getActivityClassToIntercept () ``` This method can be used to get the Class of activity being instantiated by this factory.
| Returns || |----------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------| | [Class](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Class.html)`` | Class of the activity object being instantiated
| ### shouldIntercept ``` boolean shouldIntercept (ClassLoader classLoader, String className, Intent intent) ``` This method can be used to know whether activity instance creation should be intercepted or not for a particular activity in response to a given intent.
| Parameters || |---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `classLoader` | `ClassLoader`: The ClassLoader with which to instantiate the object
| | `className` | `String`: The name of the class implementing the Activity object
| | `intent` | `Intent`: The Intent object that specified the activity class being instantiated.
| | Returns || |-----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `boolean` | true if activity with className should be intercepted, otherwise false.
| ## Protected methods ### create ``` T create (Intent intent) ``` This method needs to be implemented by child class to create activity object for the given intent that specified the activity class being instantiated.
| Parameters || |----------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `intent` | `Intent`: The Intent object that specified the activity class being instantiated.
| | Returns || |-----|------------------------------------------------| | `T` | The newly instantiated Activity object.
