Hello All,

I want to change the framework of the Android so that it can log the intent information whenever an application sends, receives or consume intents. Can someone tell me which files are responsible for intents communication in Android Framework. I have already downloaded the  Kitkat source code. Please someone guide me which files to look upon

Thanks in Advance :)

which files are responsible for intents communication in Android Framework

The Android interprocess communication (IPC) mechanism is called "binder" (originally developed as OpenBinder by Dianne Hackborn). => Google "Android Binder", and you should find articles about it.

In KitKat Intents are handled in frameworks/base/services/core/java/com/android/server/am/ActivityManagerService.java and surrounding classes. Good luck!
