判断可用的intent和更改Drawable的透明度

public static boolean isIntentAvailable(Context context, String action) {
    final PackageManager packageManager = context.getPackageManager();
    final Intent intent = new Intent(action);
    List<ResolveInfo> list =
            packageManager.queryIntentActivities(intent,
                    PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
    return list.size() > 0;
}

使用如下：

@Override
public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    final boolean scanAvailable = isIntentAvailable(this,
        "com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");

    MenuItem item;
    item = menu.findItem(R.id.menu_item_add);
    item.setEnabled(scanAvailable);

    return super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
}

2.

Drawable star = context.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.star);
if (book.isFavorite()) {
  star.mutate().setAlpha(255); // opaque
} else {
  star. mutate().setAlpha(70); // translucent
}
