Greetings Experts, Recently I had to develop a back ground service where it was instantiating a worker thread thread class as soon as the service gets created. The worker thread goes in to an infinite loop listening for requests.
It was working fine in the emulator and when I ported on to the device it was throwing exception "Can't create handler for message Looper.loop()". Later on I had fixed the issue by creating a handler as per Android documentation and it worked fine. The first question. ----------------------- What is the magic behind the handler looper.loop and the handler handle message. How it is getting called internally what is invoking handle message inside the Handler. Why should I use Handler to solve this problem ? Second Question: ------------------------ Why did it worked fine in the emulator but not on the device ? Please help me in understanding this concept. Thanks, Arjun. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
