AppWidgetManager提供的一些
方法可以綁定你的Widget、通過provider名稱獲取對應的id,獲取一個widget provider信息等,平時可能只
使用getInstance獲取一個實例,以及updateAppWidget這個方法,需要注意的是它提供了3種重載方法,可以更新一個widget組,或通過CompoentName來識別最終的對象,同時在Widget中一般界面的顯示使用了RemoteVIEws這個類,以後我們會著重講解下它有哪些特別之處。

Constants
public static final String ACTION_APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE
Sent when it is time to configure your AppWidget while it is being added to a host. This action is not sent as a broadcast to the AppWidget provider, but as a startActivity to the activity specifIEd in the AppWidgetProviderInfo meta-data.
The intent will contain the following extras:
EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID
The appWidgetId to configure.
If you return RESULT_OK using Activity.setResult(), the AppWidget will be added, and you will receive an ACTION_APPWIDGET_UPDATE broadcast for this AppWidget. If you return RESULT_CANCELED, the host will cancel the add and not display this AppWidget, and you will receive a ACTION_APPWIDGET_DELETED broadcast.
Constant Value: "android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_CONFIGURE"
public static final String ACTION_APPWIDGET_DELETED
Sent when an instance of an AppWidget is deleted from its host.
See Also
- AppWidgetProvider.onDeleted(Context context, int[] appWidgetIds)
Constant Value: "android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_DELETED"
public static final String ACTION_APPWIDGET_DISABLED
Sent when an instance of an AppWidget is removed from the last host.
See Also
- AppWidgetProvider.onEnabled(Context context)
Constant Value: "android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_DISABLED"
public static final String ACTION_APPWIDGET_ENABLED
Sent when an instance of an AppWidget is added to a host for the first time. This broadcast is sent at boot time if there is a AppWidgetHost installed with an instance for this provider.

- AppWidgetProvider.onEnabled(Context context)
Constant Value: "android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_ENABLED"
public static final String ACTION_APPWIDGET_PICK
Send this from your AppWidgetHost activity when you want to pick an AppWidget to display. The AppWidget picker activity will be launched.
You must supply the following extras:
EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID
A newly allocated appWidgetId, which will be bound to the AppWidget provider once the user has selected one.
The system will respond with an onActivityResult call with the following extras in the intent:
EXTRA_APPWIDGET_ID
The appWidgetId that you supplIEd in the original intent.
When you receive the result from the AppWidget pick activity, if the resultCode is RESULT_OK, an AppWidget has been selected. You should then check the AppWidgetProviderInfo for the returned AppWidget, and if it has one, launch its configuration activity. If RESULT_CANCELED is returned, you should delete the appWidgetId.
