Android notifications actions without opening the app

Question

I want to implement a notification action in JB. But it shouldn\'t open the app. The behaviour is similar to the Gmail apps delete notification action. How can I do this?

Answer 1

After some research I managed to achieve this using a broadcast receiver. I posted the example code here. http://shashikawlp.wordpress.com/2013/05/08/android-jelly-bean-notifications-with-actions/
