Summary

Inherited constants

From interface android.os.Parcelable

`int`	`CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR` Descriptor bit used with `describeContents()`: indicates that the Parcelable object's flattened representation includes a file descriptor.
`int`	`PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE` Flag for use with `writeToParcel(Parcel, int)`: the object being written is a return value, that is the result of a function such as "`Parcelable someFunction()`", "`void someFunction(out Parcelable)`", or "`void someFunction(inout Parcelable)`".

Fields
`public static final Creator<InstallSourceInfo>`	`CREATOR`

Public methods
`int`	`describeContents()` Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.
`String`	`getInitiatingPackageName()` The name of the package that requested the installation, or null if not available.
`SigningInfo`	`getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo()` Information about the signing certificates used to sign the initiating package, if available.
`String`	`getInstallingPackageName()` The name of the package responsible for the installation (the installer of record), or null if not available.
`String`	`getOriginatingPackageName()` The name of the package on behalf of which the initiating package requested the installation, or null if not available.
`int`	`getPackageSource()` Information about the package source when installer installed this app.
`String`	`getUpdateOwnerPackageName()` The name of the package that is the update owner, or null if not available.
`void`	`writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)` Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Inherited methods

From class java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

From interface android.os.Parcelable

`abstract int`	`describeContents()` Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation.
`abstract void`	`writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags)` Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Fields

CREATOR

Added in API level 30

 public static final Creator<InstallSourceInfo> CREATOR

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 30

 public int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
`int`	a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either `0` or `CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR`

getInitiatingPackageName

Added in API level 30

 public String getInitiatingPackageName ()

The name of the package that requested the installation, or null if not available. This is normally the same as the installing package name. If the installing package name is changed, for example by calling PackageManager.setInstallerPackageName(String, String), the initiating package name remains unchanged. It continues to identify the actual package that performed the install or update.

Null may be returned if the app was not installed by a package (e.g. a system app) or if the initiating package has itself been uninstalled.

Returns
`String`

getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo

Added in API level 30

 public SigningInfo getInitiatingPackageSigningInfo ()

Information about the signing certificates used to sign the initiating package, if available.

Returns
`SigningInfo`	This value may be `null`.

getInstallingPackageName

Added in API level 30

 public String getInstallingPackageName ()

The name of the package responsible for the installation (the installer of record), or null if not available. Note that this may differ from the initiating package name and can be modified via PackageManager.setInstallerPackageName(String, String).

Null may be returned if the app was not installed by a package (e.g. a system app or an app installed via adb) or if the installing package has itself been uninstalled.

Returns
`String`

getOriginatingPackageName

Added in API level 30

 public String getOriginatingPackageName ()

The name of the package on behalf of which the initiating package requested the installation, or null if not available.

For example if a downloaded APK is installed via the Package Installer this could be the app that performed the download. This value is provided by the initiating package and not verified by the framework.

Note that the InstallSourceInfo returned by PackageManager.getInstallSourceInfo(String) will not have this information available unless the calling application holds the INSTALL_PACKAGES permission.

Returns
`String`

getPackageSource

Added in API level 33

 public int getPackageSource ()

Information about the package source when installer installed this app.

Returns
`int`	Value is `PackageInstaller.PACKAGE_SOURCE_UNSPECIFIED`, `PackageInstaller.PACKAGE_SOURCE_STORE`, `PackageInstaller.PACKAGE_SOURCE_LOCAL_FILE`, `PackageInstaller.PACKAGE_SOURCE_DOWNLOADED_FILE`, or `PackageInstaller.PACKAGE_SOURCE_OTHER`

getUpdateOwnerPackageName

Added in API level 34

 public String getUpdateOwnerPackageName ()

The name of the package that is the update owner, or null if not available. This indicates the update ownership enforcement is enabled for this app, and which package is the update owner. Returns null if the update ownership enforcement is disabled for the app.

Returns
`String`

See also:

PackageInstaller.SessionParams.setRequestUpdateOwnership(boolean)

writeToParcel

Added in API level 30

 public void writeToParcel (Parcel dest, int flags)

Flatten this object in to a Parcel.

Parameters
`dest`	`Parcel`: This value cannot be `null`.
`flags`	`int`: Additional flags about how the object should be written. May be 0 or `Parcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE`. Value is either `0` or a combination of `Parcelable.PARCELABLE_WRITE_RETURN_VALUE`, and android.os.Parcelable.PARCELABLE_ELIDE_DUPLICATES
