BroadcastReceiver receive extra with ADB --es not working-CodePudding

I registered a broadcast receiver in the MainActivity.onCreate method with the following statements:

...
// in onCreate()
val filter = IntentFilter("com.example.my_receiver.TEST_FILTER")
registerReceiver(myReceiver, filter)
...

with the following receiver

private val myReceiver = object : BroadcastReceiver() {
    override fun onReceive(context: Context?, intent: Intent?) {
        // do something
    }
}

when I executed the add command

adb shell am broadcast -a com.example.my_receiver.TEST_FILTER

the onReceive method will be executed. But when I try to add some extra data with the following

adb shell am broadcast -a com.example.my_receiver.TEST_FILTER --es test_data "My testdata"

nothing will be executed. How can I send extra data with adb and receive it in the BroadcastReceiver implementation? The compileSdk and targetSdk is 31.

CodePudding user response：

I would recommend that you try without whitespace in the first place, or just escape the whitespace, seen also here:

adb command fail to execute if path contain spaces
