Remove transaction data if associated account removed from device about androidbillinglibrary HOT 5 CLOSED

Interesting. We didn't think of this scenario.

I wonder if there's any way to find out which Android Market account corresponds to a particular transaction. As far as I know this information is not provided by the Android Market.

Any ideas?

In any case, if you remove all transactions you can do this simply by deleting the database.

Off the top of my head, if there is no information provided by the market, we could store a list of attached google.com accounts using

Account[] accounts = accountManager.getAccountsByType("com.google");

Store that list in the database and on start, if any of the accounts in that list were deleted then run a restore in the background and compare the restored transactions against the transactions in the database. If no order id's match then wipe the database and add the new restored transactions to the list.

The thing is that you can change the Android Market account to any of your registered accounts, and that wouldn't work with this method.

Do you know if there's a way to know which account is associated to the Android Market?

It might be possible using getAccountsByTypeAndFeatures but I'm unable to find a list of features that can be requested.

i might be mistaken, but i thought to have understood from the offficial google documentation on the market and its behaviour, that only the phones PRIMARY account is used / can be used for purchasing. which means, to remove / switch that account a full device WIPE is needed, which will also wipe the transactions db the android billing library uses as storage.

if i am correct, then this issue can be closed!
