android - Start BroadCastReceiver From Activity -

i want start broadcastreceiver activity. how can that?

define broadcastreceiver:

private final broadcastreceiver             receiver     = new broadcastreceiver() {      @override     public void onreceive(context context, intent intent) {         //     } }; 

register receiver in onresume:

@override protected void onresume() {     super.onresume();      intentfilter filter = new intentfilter();     filter.addaction("some_action");     registerreceiver(receiver, filter); } 

unregister receiver in onpause:

@override protected void onpause() {     super.onpause();      unregisterreceiver(receiver); }
