Application API
This Application API provides a way to access application management.
The ApplicationControl interface consists of an operation, URI, and MIME type and also describes an action to be performed by other applications and can carry the result from the subsequent application. The ApplicationManager interface also provides methods to handle the application lifecycle, to access the installed applications on the device, and to let an application be notified of a change in the application list.
The Application interface defines the current application's information and the basic operations for the current application such as exit or hide.
Since Tizen 2.4 the Application interface provides application event broadcasting and listening features. An application can broadcast user events to other listening applications and listen to broadcasted user events from other applications. In a future Tizen release, applications will also be able to receive pre-defined system events from the platform.
For more information on the Application features, see Application Guide, Application Group Guide or Application Control Guide.

addAppInfoEventListener
Adds a listener for receiving any notification for changes in the list of installed applications on a device.
Deprecated. Deprecated since 2.4. Instead, let the app developers set a listener for getting notified for the changes(add/remove/update) of applications on a device using tizen.package.setPackageInfoEventListener().
long addAppInfoEventListener(ApplicationInformationEventCallback eventCallback);
Since: 2.0
It installs a callback that is triggered every time a change occurs on the list of installed applications on a device. This change may occur due to a new installation, uninstallation, or update of an application.
When executed, the implementation must immediately return a listener ID that identifies the listener. After returning the ID, the change detection operation is started asynchronously.
The ApplicationInformationEventCallback must be invoked every time a new application is installed, removed, or updated.
The change detection must continue until the removeAppInfoEventListener() method is called with the corresponding listener identifier.
Parameters:
- eventCallback: The method to call when a change on the installed applications is made
Return value:
long ID of the listener that can be used to remove the listener later.
Exceptions:
- WebAPIException
-
with error type TypeMismatchError, if any input parameter is not compatible with the expected type for that parameter.
-
with error type UnknownError, if it fails to add a listener because of an unknown error.
-
Code example:
var appEventCallback = {
oninstalled: function(appInfo) {
console.log('The application ' + appInfo.name + ' is installed');
},
onupdated: function(appInfo) {
console.log('The application ' + appInfo.name + ' is updated');
},
onuninstalled: function(appid) {
console.log('The application ' + appid + ' is uninstalled');
}
};
var watchId = tizen.application.addAppInfoEventListener(appEventCallback);
removeAppInfoEventListener
Removes the listener to stop receiving notifications for changes on the list of installed applications on a device.
Deprecated. Deprecated since 2.4. Instead, you can use tizen.package.unsetPackageInfoEventListener().
void removeAppInfoEventListener(long watchId);
Since: 2.0
Parameters:
- watchId: An ID that identifies the listener
Exceptions:
- WebAPIException
-
with error type NotFoundError, if the listener is not found with the specified ID.
-
with error type UnknownError, if it fails to remove a listener because of an unknown error.

Code example:
var appEventCallback = {
oninstalled: function(appInfo) {
console.log('The application ' + appInfo.name + ' is installed');
},
onupdated: function(appInfo) {
console.log('The application ' + appInfo.name + ' is updated');
},
onuninstalled: function(appid) {
console.log('The application ' + appid + ' is uninstalled');
}
};
var watchId = tizen.application.addAppInfoEventListener(appEventCallback);

Since: 4.0
Parameters:
- eventCallback: The method to call when status of the installed applications is changed.
- appId optional nullable: The id of the application which status changes should be monitored. If the application id is ommitted or it is equal to null, all applications status changes will be monitored.
Return value:
long Listener id that can be used to remove the listener later.
Exceptions:
- WebAPIException
-
with error type TypeMismatchError, if any input parameter is not compatible with the expected type for that parameter.
-
with error type InvalidValuesError, if the application id parameter is an empty string.
-
with error type AbortError, if it fails to add a listener.
-
Code example:
function appStatusEventCallback(appId, isActive)
{
console.log("The application " + appId + " has been " + (isActive ? "activated" : "deactivated"));
}
var watchId = tizen.application.addAppStatusChangeListener(appStatusEventCallback);
Output example:
The application testAppId has been activated
removeAppStatusChangeListener
Removes the listener to stop receiving notifications for status changes of the installed applications on a device.
void removeAppStatusChangeListener(long watchId);
Since: 4.0
Parameters:
- watchId: An ID that identifies the listener.
Exceptions:
- WebAPIException

Dictionary members
long? timeSpan
The attribute to store period of time, from which data is accumulated, in days. The period of time begins timeSpan days ago and ends with current date.
If the attribute is given, the attributes startTime and endTime of this interface are not taken into an account. If timeSpan is greater than 90, 90 will be used instead.
Since: 4.0
Date? startTime
The attribute to store the date, which is used as a lower bound for selecting data.
If only startTime attribute is given, by default endTime is equal to the current date. If startTime date predates the 90 days from the current time, data will be accumulated from last 90 days.
Since: 4.0
Date? endTime
The attribute to store the date, which is used as an upper bound for selecting data.
If only endTime attribute is given, data will be accumulated from 90 days ago to endTime date.

var myCustomData = {
foo: 'bar'
};
var app = tizen.application.getCurrentApplication();
app.broadcastEvent({"name": "custom_user_event"}, myCustomData);
broadcastTrustedEvent
Broadcasts a user defined event to all the trusted listeners which are listening for this event. Applications which have the same certificate as the sending application can receive the event.
void broadcastTrustedEvent(EventInfo event, UserEventData data);
Since: 2.4
An application can listen to events from other applications. However, it can only broadcast its own events. Therefore, the appId attribute of the EventInfo dictionary must be the identifier of the application which calls this method.
Parameters:
- event: Trusted event to broadcast
