How to find purchase state in new version, since Purchase.getPurchaseState() is no longer available?

[OneLiteCore]

In old version com.android.billingclient:billing:dp-1 we could use Purchase.getPurchaseState() method to get the state of it. But this is no longer available in the new version com.android.billingclient:billing:1.0.

In docs Play Billing Library: Querying for purchased items it says that:

You can then call a variety of methods on the Purchase object to view relevant information about the item, such as its 【【【purchase state】】】 or time. To view the types of product detail information that are available, see the list of methods in the Purchase class.

But, as you can see, there is NO such a thing.

Another question is, how could we get those CANCELED and REFUND ones?

According to the docs, we could use BillingCliend.queryPurchases() to get PURCHASED items, and use BillingCliend.queryPurchaseHistoryAsync() to get all items. With this two methods we could know which item is NOT PURCHASED, but never will we know what is it in the end.

Good question. I was looking for the same info. Any idea yet?

From what I understood by reading different stuff in google, google really doesn't want in-apps to be refundable and you should not handle refunds with few rare exceptions.

From inside of the app perspective, you should respect the purchase no matter was it refunded or not and just let it be.

Technically, yes, there will be few situations where it will lead to users getting in-app for free, but these would be rare and you can't do anything about it.

So the only adaptation I did is added clause regarding refunds policy to app's license agreement and I stated that refunds won't be issued unless they've been granted by google. And google's refund policy regarding in-apps is kinda similar and reads as "we don't issue refunds with few rare exceptions".
