GLOVE_BOX_LOCKED

What it is

Lock or unlock the glove box.

If true, the glove box is locked. If false, the glove box is unlocked.

The area ID must match the seat by which the glove box is intended to be used (e.g. if the front right dashboard has a glove box embedded in it, then the area ID should be VehicleAreaSeat#ROW_1_RIGHT).

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 0x15200bf1 apart:

Field	Mask	Value	Means
Group	0xf0000000	0x10000000	SYSTEM
Area	0x0f000000	0x05000000	SEAT
Type	0x00ff0000	0x00200000	BOOLEAN
Ordinal	0x0000ffff	0x00000bf1	0xbf1

Reading it from an app

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

boolean value =
        mgr.getBooleanProperty(VehiclePropertyIds.GLOVE_BOX_LOCKED, areaId);

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