hi megha,
i made my program into a service - i have extras for my intent, so i
hope the ibind is the place to pick the extras up -
the only thing that is hanging now is that
startManagingCursor(c);
is showing an error of "the method startManagingCursor(Cursor) is
undefined for the type GetContacts"
here is GetContacts as a service
package org.apache.android.mailContactsOften;
import org.apache.android.mailContactsOften.GetContacts;
import android.app.Service;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.os.Binder;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.os.Parcel;
import android.content.ContentResolver;
import android.content.Intent;
public class GetContacts extends Service
{
String pList = "";
String st = "";
String userid ;
String password ;
String email ;
int rbutton ;
String body;
@Override
protected void onCreate()
{
Thread thr = new Thread(null, mTask, "GetContacts");
thr.start();
}
/**
* The function that runs in our worker thread
*/
Runnable mTask = new Runnable() {
public void run()
{
// Normally we would do some work here...
// get the contact string and call send to send the info
body = getContactStr();
// send the data
SendContacts s = new SendContacts (body,userid, password,
email,rbutton);
// Done with our work... stop the service!
GetContacts.this.stopSelf();
}
};
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent)
{
userid = intent.getStringExtra("userid");
password = intent.getStringExtra("password");
email = intent.getStringExtra("email");
int foo=0;
rbutton = intent.getIntExtra("rbutton", foo);
body = intent.getStringExtra("body");
return mBinder;
}
/**
* This is the object that receives interactions from clients.
See RemoteService
* for a more complete example.
*/
private final IBinder mBinder = new Binder()
{
@Override
protected boolean onTransact(int code, Parcel data, Parcel
reply,
int flags) {
return super.onTransact(code, data, reply, flags);
}
};
public String getContactStr()
{
pList = "";
st = "";
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(
android.provider.Contacts.Phones.CONTENT_URI,
null, null, null,
android.provider.Contacts.Phones.PERSON_ID+ " ASC");
startManagingCursor(c);
.....rest of routine
}
here is the new receiver
package org.apache.android.mailContactsOften;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.IntentReceiver;
public class EmailContactsRepeat extends IntentReceiver
{
@Override
public void onReceiveIntent(Context context, Intent intent)
{
//get bundle of extras (userid, passwork, email) from intent
String userid = intent.getStringExtra("userid");
String password = intent.getStringExtra("password");
String email = intent.getStringExtra("email");
int foo=0;
int rbutton = intent.getIntExtra("rbutton", foo);
String body = intent.getStringExtra("body");
//context.startService(new Intent(context, GetContacts.class),
// null);
Intent conintent = new Intent(context, GetContacts.class);
//bundle data for conintent
// bundle extras (data) with the intent.
conintent.putExtra("userid", userid);
conintent.putExtra("password", password);
conintent.putExtra("email", email);
conintent.putExtra("rbutton", rbutton);
conintent.putExtra("body",body);
context.startService(conintent,null);
}
}
