Interface TagTechnology

  • All Superinterfaces:
    AutoCloseable, Closeable
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    IsoDep, MifareClassic, MifareUltralight, Ndef, NdefFormatable, NfcA, NfcB, NfcBarcode, NfcF, NfcV

    public interface TagTechnology
extends Closeable
    TagTechnology is an interface to a technology in a Tag.

    Obtain a TagTechnology implementation by calling the static method get() on the implementation class.

    NFC tags are based on a number of independently developed technologies and offer a wide range of capabilities. The TagTechnology implementations provide access to these different technologies and capabilities. Some sub-classes map to technology specification (for example NfcA, IsoDep, others map to pseudo-technologies or capabilities (for example Ndef, NdefFormatable).

    It is mandatory for all Android NFC devices to provide the following TagTechnology implementations.

    • NfcA (also known as ISO 14443-3A)
    • NfcB (also known as ISO 14443-3B)
    • NfcF (also known as JIS 6319-4)
    • NfcV (also known as ISO 15693)
    • IsoDep
    • Ndef on NFC Forum Type 1, Type 2, Type 3 or Type 4 compliant tags
    It is optional for Android NFC devices to provide the following TagTechnology implementations. If it is not provided, the Android device will never enumerate that class via Tag.getTechList().
    • MifareClassic
    • MifareUltralight
    • NdefFormatable must only be enumerated on tags for which this Android device is capable of formatting. Proprietary knowledge is often required to format a tag to make it NDEF compatible.

    TagTechnology implementations provide methods that fall into two classes: cached getters and I/O operations.

    Cached getters

    These methods (usually prefixed by get or is) return properties of the tag, as determined at discovery time. These methods will never block or cause RF activity, and do not require connect() to have been called. They also never update, for example if a property is changed by an I/O operation with a tag then the cached getter will still return the result from tag discovery time.

    I/O operations

    I/O operations may require RF activity, and may block. They have the following semantics.
    • connect() must be called before using any other I/O operation.
    • close() must be called after completing I/O operations with a TagTechnology, and it will cancel all other blocked I/O operations on other threads (including connect() with IOException.
    • Only one TagTechnology can be connected at a time. Other calls to connect() will return IOException.
    • I/O operations may block, and should never be called on the main application thread.

    Note: Methods that perform I/O operations require the android.Manifest.permission#NFC permission.

      • connect

        void connect()
             throws IOException
        Enable I/O operations to the tag from this TagTechnology object.

        May cause RF activity and may block. Must not be called from the main application thread. A blocked call will be canceled with IOException by calling close() from another thread.

        Only one TagTechnology object can be connected to a Tag at a time.

        Applications must call close() when I/O operations are complete.

        Requires the android.Manifest.permission#NFC permission.

        Throws:
        TagLostException - if the tag leaves the field
        IOException - if there is an I/O failure, or connect is canceled
        See Also:
        close()

      • reconnect

        void reconnect()

        Re-connect to the Tag associated with this connection. Reconnecting to a tag can be used to reset the state of the tag itself.

        May cause RF activity and may block. Must not be called from the main application thread. A blocked call will be canceled with IOException by calling close() from another thread.

        Requires the android.Manifest.permission#NFC permission.

        Throws:
        TagLostException - if the tag leaves the field
        IOException - if there is an I/O failure, or connect is canceled
