23 /**
24  * Base class that provides the content of a document to be printed.
25  *
26  * <h3>Lifecycle</h3>
27  * <p>
28  * <ul>
29  * <li>
30  * Initially, you will receive a call to {@link #onStart()}. This callback
31  * can be used to allocate resources.
32  * </li>
33  * <li>
34  * Next, you will get one or more calls to {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes,
35  * PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} to
36  * inform you that the print attributes (page size, density, etc) changed
37  * giving you an opportunity to layout the content to match the new constraints.
38  * </li>
39  * <li>
40  * After every call to {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes, PrintAttributes,
41  * CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)}, you <strong>may</strong> get
42  * a call to {@link #onWrite(PageRange[], ParcelFileDescriptor, CancellationSignal,
43  * WriteResultCallback)} asking you to write a PDF file with the content for
44  * specific pages.
45  * </li>
46  * <li>
47  * Finally, you will receive a call to {@link #onFinish()}. You can use this
48  * callback to release resources allocated in {@link #onStart()}.
49  * </li>
50  * </ul>
51  * <p>
52  * The {@link #onStart()} callback is always the first call you will receive and
53  * is useful for doing one time setup or resource allocation before printing. You
54  * will not receive a subsequent call here.
55  * </p>
56  * <p>
57  * The {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes, PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal,
58  * LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} callback requires that you layout the content
59  * based on the current {@link PrintAttributes}. The execution of this method is
60  * not considered completed until you invoke one of the methods on the passed in
61  * callback instance. Hence, you will not receive a subsequent call to any other
62  * method of this class until the execution of this method is complete by invoking
63  * one of the callback methods.
64  * </p>
65  * <p>
66  * The {@link #onWrite(PageRange[], ParcelFileDescriptor, CancellationSignal,
67  * WriteResultCallback)} requires that you render and write the content of some
68  * pages to the provided destination. The execution of this method is not
69  * considered complete until you invoke one of the methods on the passed in
70  * callback instance. Hence, you will not receive a subsequent call to any other
71  * method of this class until the execution of this method is complete by invoking
72  * one of the callback methods. You will never receive a sequence of one or more
73  * calls to this method without a previous call to {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes,
74  * PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)}.
75  * </p>
76  * <p>
77  * The {@link #onFinish()} callback is always the last call you will receive and
78  * is useful for doing one time cleanup or resource deallocation after printing.
79  * You will not receive a subsequent call here.
80  * </p>
81  * </p>
82  * <h3>Implementation</h3>
83  * <p>
84  * The APIs defined in this class are designed to enable doing part or all
85  * of the work on an arbitrary thread. For example, if the printed content
86  * does not depend on the UI state, i.e. on what is shown on the screen, then
87  * you can offload the entire work on a dedicated thread, thus making your
88  * application interactive while the print work is being performed. Note that
89  * while your activity is covered by the system print UI and a user cannot
90  * interact with it, doing the printing work on the main application thread
91  * may affect the performance of your other application components as they
92  * are also executed on that thread.
93  * </p>
94  * <p>
95  * You can also do work on different threads, for example if you print UI
96  * content, you can handle {@link #onStart()} and {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes,
97  * PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} on
98  * the UI thread (assuming onStart initializes resources needed for layout).
99  * This will ensure that the UI does not change while you are laying out the
100  * printed content. Then you can handle {@link #onWrite(PageRange[], ParcelFileDescriptor,
101  * CancellationSignal, WriteResultCallback)} and {@link #onFinish()} on another
102  * thread. This will ensure that the main thread is busy for a minimal amount of
103  * time. Also this assumes that you will generate the printed content in
104  * {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes, PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal,
105  * LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} which is not mandatory. If you use multiple
106  * threads, you are responsible for proper synchronization.
107  * </p>

151      * which is used to propagate requests from the system to your application for
152      * canceling the current layout operation. For example, a cancellation may be
153      * requested if the user changes a print option that may affect layout while
154      * you are performing a layout operation. In such a case the system will make
155      * an attempt to cancel the current layout as another one will have to be performed.
156      * Typically, you should register a cancellation callback in the cancellation
157      * signal. The cancellation callback <strong>will not</strong> be made on the
158      * main thread and can be registered as follows:
159      * </p>
160      * <pre>
161      * cancellationSignal.setOnCancelListener(new OnCancelListener() {
162      *     &#064;Override

168      * <p>
169      * <strong>Note:</strong> If the content is large and a layout will be
170      * performed, it is a good practice to schedule the work on a dedicated
171      * thread and register an observer in the provided {@link
