= Measuring the Android Foreground/Background State =
This guide shows you how to integrate the SdkBgFgDetectionUtility class which
Nielsen has made available for measurement of Android Foreground/Background
state. Correct measurement of foreground/background state is crucial to Static App
measurement within Nielsen Digital Content Ratings (DCR).

== FOREGROUND AND BACKGROUND STATE OVERVIEW ==
Foreground/Background state measurement may be implemented in multiple ways
for Android. This includes
* Enable the Nielsen SDK to measure background/foreground state by making
the relevant update to the AndroidManifest.
* Implement the required methods.
* Integrate Nielsen’s SdkBgFgDetectionUtility class within your Custom
Application Class.
This document is intended to demonstrate how to integrate the
SdkBgFgDetectionUtility class. The SdkBgFgDetectionUtility is compatible with
Android 4+.
If your Android application does not have an existing Custom Application Class, then
foreground/background measurement should be achieved through the use of the
AndroidManifest solution.

== INTEGRATING THE UTILITY CLASS ==
There are four main steps to integrating the SdkBgFgDetectionUtility class for use in
handling foreground/background state notification.

=== Add the Class ===
First copy and paste the SdkBgFgDetectionUtility.java class into your project.

=== Link the Class to your Project ===
You must now open SdkBgFgDetectionUtility class and set the package name header
to the package name for your specific application:
<syntaxhighlight = "java">
//Change package to your project package
package com.nielsen.myapplication;
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Instantiate the Utility ===
Instantiate the SdkBgFgDetectionUtility within the onCreate() method of your app’s
inherited Application Class.
<syntaxhighlight = "java">
SdkBgFgDetectionUtility sdkUtility = new SdkBgFgDetectionUtility(this);
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Initialise the Class ===
Call the method handleSdkLifecyleEvents to let the class start handling
foreground/background state measurement.
<syntaxhighlight = "java">
sdkUtility.handleSdkLifecycleEvents();
</syntaxhighlight>
