EV_CHARGE_PORT_OPEN

What it is

EV charge port open

If the vehicle has multiple charging ports, this property must return true if any of the charge ports are open.

This property is defined as VehiclePropertyAccess.READ_WRITE, but OEMs have the option to implement it as VehiclePropertyAccess.READ only.

How the ID is built

A property ID is a 32-bit value packing four fields. Reading 0x1120030a apart:

FieldMaskValueMeans
Group0xf00000000x10000000SYSTEM
Area0x0f0000000x01000000GLOBAL
Type0x00ff00000x00200000BOOLEAN
Ordinal0x0000ffff0x0000030a0x30a

Reading it from an app

CarPropertyManager mgr = (CarPropertyManager)
        car.getCarManager(Car.PROPERTY_SERVICE);

boolean value =
        mgr.getBooleanProperty(VehiclePropertyIds.EV_CHARGE_PORT_OPEN, 0);

This property can be read and written, though an OEM may implement it as read-only. It fires a callback whenever the value changes.
