LocalNotification (Codename One API)

java.lang.Object
- com.codename1.notifications.LocalNotification

```
public class LocalNotification
extends Object
```
Local notifications are user notifications that are scheduled by the app itself. They are very similar to push notifications, except that they originate locally, rather than remotely.

They enable an app that isnt running in the foreground to let its users know it has information for them. The information could be a message, an impending calendar event, or new data on a remote server. They can display an alert message or they can badge the app icon. They can also play a sound when the alert or badge number is shown.

When users are notified that the app has a message, event, or other data for them, they can launch the app and see the details. They can also choose to ignore the notification, in which case the app is not activated.

This class encapsulates a single notification (though the notification can be repeating).
Usage

Android Note: The default image that is used on the android top status bar and on the notification itself is the App's icon. However Android 5 and above will only display this image as a silhouette using alpha pixels. This will result in many icons appearing to be a blank white square. In such cases you can provide an alternate image to be displayed instead. Place a 24x24 image named "ic_stat_notify.png" in your project's native/android directory, and this image will be used instead.
