Request update is a very fast method
/**
* Request updates for the given widgets. Will only queue them up,
you are
* still responsible for starting a processing thread if needed,
usually by
* starting the parent service.
*/
public static void requestUpdate(int[] appWidgetIds) {
synchronized (lock) {
for (int appWidgetId : appWidgetIds) {
HyvesWidgetService.appWidgetIds.add(appWidgetId);
}
}
}
Yeah the onUpdate (may) fork antother thread.
I now solved it by waiting in the IntentService thread on an object
using a lock:
lock.wait();
and then if it is done i call lock.notify().
This should work i think... i'm trying it out right now.
