What's wrong with this addProximity code?

Question

I have this code:

private void setupProximity() {   
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, PlacesProximityHandlerService.class);
    intent.setAction("PlacesProximityHandlerService");
    intent.putExtra("lat", objPlace.getLat());
    intent.putExtra("lon", objPlace.getLon());
    intent.putExtra("error_m", objPlace.getError()+ALERT_RANGE_IN_METERS);
    PendingIntent sender=PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, 0);
    LocationUtils.addProximity(this, objPlace.getLat(), objPlace.getLon(),objPlace.getError()+ALERT_RANGE_IN_METERS, -1, sender);

    }

public static void addProximity(Context ctx,double lat, double lon, float rad,long exp, PendingIntent pintent) {
        LocationManager lm = (LocationManager) ctx.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
        lm.addProximityAlert(lat, lon, rad, exp, pintent);
    }

Why I don't get the class to fire up? I am in the range of the zone

Answer 1

The bug was a small typo instead of getBroadcast

I had to use

PendingIntent.getService
