System.out.println doesn't show package name

Question

I am trying to get an application ID from an app.

My final goal is getting push messages to it. But I can't figure out why my package name doesn't show up. Does someone have an solution for it? Or an example app where it is working on?

This is my code I used for getting my package name:

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    ClassA instanceOfClass = new ClassA();
    String packageName = instanceOfClass.getClass().getPackage().getName();
    System.out.println( "Package Name : " + packageName);
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


}

just use Log.d(TAG,MSG) instead of System.out.println() and look for it in the logcat — CodingBird, Oct 23 '13 at 08:50
I have a simulator and just in de app where "Hello World" shows up — Drogon, Oct 23 '13 at 08:50
@CodingBird So it will be this: Log.d("PackageName: ", packageName); ? — Drogon, Oct 23 '13 at 09:05
If you want the package name of the current class, you could use this.getClass().getPackage().getName();. — Akkusativobjekt, Oct 23 '13 at 09:06
It should be: Log.d("ANY_STRING", "Package Name: "+packageName); Here ANY_STRING can be any string you want, it's just a tag that will be used to find your debugging log in the logcat :) — CodingBird, Oct 23 '13 at 09:07
Check your logcat, I tested for my phone and it shows in the logcat — Mohit Verma, Oct 23 '13 at 09:18

Are you interested in the Java package name or the Android package name? In the general case, they may be different. An Activity has getPackageName() defined in the ancestor class ContextWrapper and documented as: Return the name of this application's package.

Use the code without the instance of the class i.e String packageName = getClass().getPackage() .getName().toString(); This 'll return you the current package name.
