3*d353a188SXin Li===================================
4*d353a188SXin Li
5*d353a188SXin LiThis sample shows runtime permissions available in Android M and above.
6*d353a188SXin LiIt shows how to check and request permissions at runtime, handle backwards compatibility using the
7*d353a188SXin Lisupport library and how to declare optional permissions for M-devices only.
8*d353a188SXin Li
9*d353a188SXin LiIntroduction
10*d353a188SXin Li------------
11*d353a188SXin Li
12*d353a188SXin LiAndroid M introduced runtime permissions. Applications targeting M and above need to request their
13*d353a188SXin Lipermissions at runtime.
14*d353a188SXin LiAll permissions still need to be declared in the AndroidManifest. However, when accessing APIs that
15*d353a188SXin Lirequire a permission, the Activity or Fragment has to verify that the permission has been granted
16*d353a188SXin Lior request the missing permissions using calls through the support library. Permissions are checked
17*d353a188SXin Lithrough  ActivityCompat#checkSelfPermission(Context, String) or
18*d353a188SXin LiContextCompat#checkSelfPermission(Context, String).
19*d353a188SXin LiPermission are requested through ActivityCompat#requestPermissions(Activity, String[], int), and the response
20*d353a188SXin Lireceived in a callback to  ActivityCompat.OnRequestPermissionsResultCallback#onRequestPermissionsResult(int, String[], int[]).
21*d353a188SXin LiApplications can provide an additional rational for the use of permissions after calling
22*d353a188SXin LiActivityCompat#shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(Activity,String). This call will return true if the
23*d353a188SXin Liapplication should provide the user with more context on why the requested permissions is needed,
24*d353a188SXin Lifor example if the permission request has been denied before.
25*d353a188SXin Li
26*d353a188SXin LiIf an application targets an SDK below M, all permissions are granted at runtime and are available
27*d353a188SXin Liwhen the application is running. The support library calls handle these checks appropriately.
28*d353a188SXin LiHowever, if permissions have been turned off in the system settings
29*d353a188SXin Lifor an application targeting an SDK below M, the API will return empty or no data.
