Before, Launcher2 sent an intent to
com.android.settings/com.android.settings.LauncherAppWidgetBinder
to bind any converted appwidgets. That doesn't seem to work anymore,
and is not how non-converted widgets are bound. Changing to
binding the widgets directly fixes a problem where the search
widget was not bound after an upgrade from Eclair to Master.
The search widget conversion problem was introduced in
Change I85d64defe155c0cad97fafef6a3db62c6cab504a
where I got rid of the built-in search widget.
This patch may break conversion of legacy built-in
clock and photo widgets, but I believe that was already broken
because of the non-functional widget binding mechanism.
Bug: http://b/2322160
Added support for adding appwidgets beyond clock and search to the
intital configuration. Also pulled in a previous change in Launcher that
allowed http shortcuts. New syntax looks like this in
default_workspace.xml:
<appwidget
launcher:packageName="com.android.settings"
launcher:className="com.android.settings.widget.SettingsAppWidgetProvider"
launcher:screen="0"
launcher:x="0"
launcher:y="2"
launcher:spanX="4"
launcher:spanY="1" />
<shortcut
launcher:packageName="com.android.settings"
launcher:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher_appwidget"
launcher:title="@string/group_folder"
launcher:uri="http://www.nytimes.com"
launcher:screen="2"
launcher:x="2"
launcher:y="2" />
