Class CarNowPlayingTemplate

java.lang.Object
com.codename1.car.CarTemplate
com.codename1.car.CarNowPlayingTemplate
public class CarNowPlayingTemplate extends CarTemplate
The system now-playing surface for audio apps. On both platforms the track metadata, artwork, transport controls and scrubber are driven by the platform media session -- on Android by the MediaSession behind Codename One's background audio service, on iOS by MPNowPlayingInfoCenter / the remote command center -- so this template carries no metadata of its own. It exists to (a) route the head unit to the now-playing screen and (b) add up-to-two app-specific buttons (shuffle, repeat, like, rate). Maps to CPNowPlayingTemplate and the Android Auto now-playing view.
