NfcAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(this) returns null in emulator
- by DixieFlatline
I am trying to test ForegroundDispatch (http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/nfc/ForegroundDispatch.html) in emulator API 10 (Android 2.3.3).
When i call NfcAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(this), i get null. Why is this so?
Code:
public class ForegroundDispatch extends Activity {
private NfcAdapter mAdapter;
private PendingIntent mPendingIntent;
private IntentFilter[] mFilters;
private String[][] mTechLists;
private TextView mText;
private int mCount = 0;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedState) {
super.onCreate(savedState);
setContentView(R.layout.foreground_dispatch);
mText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text);
mText.setText("Scan a tag");
mAdapter = NfcAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(this);
// Create a generic PendingIntent that will be deliver to this activity. The NFC stack
// will fill in the intent with the details of the discovered tag before delivering to
// this activity.
mPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0,
new Intent(this, getClass()).addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP), 0);
// Setup an intent filter for all MIME based dispatches
IntentFilter ndef = new IntentFilter(NfcAdapter.ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED);
try {
ndef.addDataType("*/*");
} catch (MalformedMimeTypeException e) {
throw new RuntimeException("fail", e);
}
mFilters = new IntentFilter[] {
ndef,
};
// Setup a tech list for all NfcF tags
mTechLists = new String[][] { new String[] { NfcF.class.getName() } };
}
@Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mAdapter.enableForegroundDispatch(this, mPendingIntent, mFilters, mTechLists); //CRASHES HERE BECAUSE mAdapter IS NULL
}
@Override
public void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
Log.i("Foreground dispatch", "Discovered tag with intent: " + intent);
mText.setText("Discovered tag " + ++mCount + " with intent: " + intent);
}
@Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
mAdapter.disableForegroundDispatch(this);
}
}
My manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.neka.znacka"
android:versionCode="1"

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name="Simulator">
</activity>
</application>
Any ideas?
