     27  * <p>OffHostApduService is a convenience {@link Service} class that can be
     28  * extended to describe one or more NFC applications that are residing
     29  * off-host, for example on an embedded secure element or a UICC.
     30  *
     31  * <div class="special reference">
     32  * <h3>Developer Guide</h3>
     33  * For a general introduction into the topic of card emulation,
     34  * please read the <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/nfc/ce.html">
     35  * NFC card emulation developer guide.</a></p>
     36  * </div>
     37  *
     38  * <h3>NFC Protocols</h3>
     39  * <p>Off-host applications represented by this class are based on the NFC-Forum ISO-DEP
     40  * protocol (based on ISO/IEC 14443-4) and support processing
     41  * command Application Protocol Data Units (APDUs) as
     42  * defined in the ISO/IEC 7816-4 specification.
     43  *
     44  * <h3>Service selection</h3>
     45  * <p>When a remote NFC device wants to talk to your
     46  * off-host NFC application, it sends a so-called
     47  * "SELECT AID" APDU as defined in the ISO/IEC 7816-4 specification.
     48  * The AID is an application identifier defined in ISO/IEC 7816-4.
     49  *
     50  * <p>The registration procedure for AIDs is defined in the
     51  * ISO/IEC 7816-5 specification. If you don't want to register an
     52  * AID, you are free to use AIDs in the proprietary range:
     53  * bits 8-5 of the first byte must each be set to '1'. For example,
     54  * "0xF00102030405" is a proprietary AID. If you do use proprietary
     55  * AIDs, it is recommended to choose an AID of at least 6 bytes,
     56  * to reduce the risk of collisions with other applications that
     57  * might be using proprietary AIDs as well.
     58  *
     59  * <h3>AID groups</h3>
     60  * <p>In some cases, an off-host environment may need to register multiple AIDs
     61  * to implement a certain application, and it needs to be sure
     62  * that it is the default handler for all of these AIDs (as opposed
     63  * to some AIDs in the group going to another service).
     64  *
     65  * <p>An AID group is a list of AIDs that should be considered as
     66  * belonging together by the OS. For all AIDs in an AID group, the
     67  * OS will guarantee one of the following:
     68  * <ul>
     69  * <li>All AIDs in the group are routed to the off-host execution environment
     70  * <li>No AIDs in the group are routed to the off-host execution environment
     71  * </ul>
     72  * In other words, there is no in-between state, where some AIDs
     73  * in the group can be routed to this off-host execution environment,
     74  * and some to another or a host-based {@link HostApduService}.
     75  * <h3>AID groups and categories</h3>
     76  * <p>Each AID group can be associated with a category. This allows
     77  * the Android OS to classify services, and it allows the user to
     78  * set defaults at the category level instead of the AID level.
     79  *
     80  * <p>You can use
     81  * {@link CardEmulation#isDefaultServiceForCategory(android.content.ComponentName, String)}
     82  * to determine if your off-host service is the default handler for a category.
     83  *
     84  * <p>In this version of the platform, the only known categories
     85  * are {@link CardEmulation#CATEGORY_PAYMENT} and {@link CardEmulation#CATEGORY_OTHER}.
     86  * AID groups without a category, or with a category that is not recognized
     87  * by the current platform version, will automatically be
     88  * grouped into the {@link CardEmulation#CATEGORY_OTHER} category.
     89  *
     90  * <h3>Service AID registration</h3>
     91  * <p>To tell the platform which AIDs
     92  * reside off-host and are managed by this service, a {@link #SERVICE_META_DATA}
     93  * entry must be included in the declaration of the service. An
     94  * example of a OffHostApduService manifest declaration is shown below:
     95  * <pre> &lt;service android:name=".MyOffHostApduService" android:exported="true" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_NFC_SERVICE"&gt;
     96  *     &lt;intent-filter&gt;
     97  *         &lt;action android:name="android.nfc.cardemulation.action.OFF_HOST_APDU_SERVICE"/&gt;
     98  *     &lt;/intent-filter&gt;
     99  *     &lt;meta-data android:name="android.nfc.cardemulation.off_host_apdu_ervice" android:resource="@xml/apduservice"/&gt;
    100  * &lt;/service&gt;</pre>
    101  *
    102  * This meta-data tag points to an apduservice.xml file.
    103  * An example of this file with a single AID group declaration is shown below:
    104  * <pre>
    105  * &lt;offhost-apdu-service xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    106  *           android:description="@string/servicedesc"&gt;
    107  *       &lt;aid-group android:description="@string/subscription" android:category="other">
    108  *           &lt;aid-filter android:name="F0010203040506"/&gt;
    109  *           &lt;aid-filter android:name="F0394148148100"/&gt;
    110  *       &lt;/aid-group&gt;
    111  * &lt;/offhost-apdu-service&gt;
    112  * </pre>
    113  *
    114  * <p>The {@link android.R.styleable#OffHostApduService &lt;offhost-apdu-service&gt;} is required
    115  * to contain a
    116  * {@link android.R.styleable#OffHostApduService_description &lt;android:description&gt;}
    117  * attribute that contains a user-friendly description of the service that may be shown in UI.
    118  *
    119  * <p>The {@link android.R.styleable#OffHostApduService &lt;offhost-apdu-service&gt;} must
    120  * contain one or more {@link android.R.styleable#AidGroup &lt;aid-group&gt;} tags.
    121  * Each {@link android.R.styleable#AidGroup &lt;aid-group&gt;} must contain one or
    122  * more {@link android.R.styleable#AidFilter &lt;aid-filter&gt;} tags, each of which
    123  * contains a single AID. The AID must be specified in hexadecimal format, and contain
    124  * an even number of characters.
    125  *
    126  * <p>This registration will allow the service to be included
    127  * as an option for being the default handler for categories.
    128  * The Android OS will take care of correctly
    129  * routing the AIDs to the off-host execution environment,
    130  * based on which service the user has selected to be the handler for a certain category.
    131  *
    132  * <p>The service may define additional actions outside of the
    133  * Android namespace that provide further interaction with
    134  * the off-host execution environment.
    135  *
    136  * <p class="note">Use of this class requires the
    137  * {@link PackageManager#FEATURE_NFC_HOST_CARD_EMULATION} to be present
    138  * on the device.
