Public Methods

public static boolean requestSendAccessibilityEvent (ViewParent parent, View child, AccessibilityEvent event)

Called by a child to request from its parent to send an AccessibilityEvent. The child has already populated a record for itself in the event and is delegating to its parent to send the event. The parent can optionally add a record for itself.

Note: An accessibility event is fired by an individual view which populates the event with a record for its state and requests from its parent to perform the sending. The parent can optionally add a record for itself before dispatching the request to its parent. A parent can also choose not to respect the request for sending the event. The accessibility event is sent by the topmost view in the view tree.

Parameters
parent The parent whose method to invoke.
child The child which requests sending the event.
event The event to be sent.
Returns
  • True if the event was sent.
