Create a custom "Big Notifications"

实现自定义布局的Notification，该文源自：http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21237495/create-custom-big-notifications

So after excessive google usage, I found this tutorial explaining how to use custom big layouts. The trick is not to use setStyle() but manually set the bigContentView field of the Notificationafter building it. Seems a bit hacky, but this is what I finally came up with:

notification_layout_big.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"    android:layout_width="match_parent"    android:layout_height="100dp" <!-- This is where I manually define the height -->    android:orientation="horizontal" >    <!-- some more elements.. --> </LinearLayout>

Building Notification in code:

Notification foregroundNote;RemoteViews bigView = new RemoteViews(getApplicationContext().getPackageName(),    R.layout.notification_layout_big);// bigView.setOnClickPendingIntent() etc..Notification.Builder mNotifyBuilder = new Notification.Builder(this);foregroundNote = mNotifyBuilder.setContentTitle("some string")        .setContentText("Slide down on note to expand")        .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_stat_notify_white)        .setLargeIcon(bigIcon)        .build();foregroundNote.bigContentView = bigView;// now show notification..NotificationManager mNotifyManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);mNotifyManager.notify(1, foregroundNote);
