Step #1: Add a <permission> element to your <manifest>, describing the permission you want others to hold. Step #2: Add an android:permission attribute on your <service>, using the name of the permission you used in step #1. Step #3: Tell others they need a <uses-permission> element in their manifest for the name you used in step #1. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 2.9 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
