Permission management Android

By Anup S • March 23, 2009 • Filed in: Reputation

Since we were finding simple solutions for lead generation and CRM for the smartphone market, we started with the Android platform. The first thing we came across was how Android’s OS handled permission management for applications build for the platform.

High-level permissions restricting access to entire components of the system or application can be applied through your AndroidManifest.xml. All that this requires is including an android:permission attribute on the desired component, naming the permission that will be used to control access to it.

Since our software needed access to the contacts on the phone, it was as simple as adding this to the manifest file for the application.

<uses android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"></uses>
