thanks mark, I am starting service in myactivity::OnDestroy. When activity is opened again, I am maintaining flag in preference that service has started. If that flag is set, then i am stopping service (or starting service with stopself parameter in intent as per yr suggestion in diff. thread in group) from MyActivity::OnCreate. after that i need to use two integer values(kind of key values to get more data from that from database file)
When i am stopping service(2nd time activity get started and service running) I require latest value two integers from service. How can i get those values in activity from service without waiting for service to stop? One more question, In myactivity, i have handler which implements handlemessage(), is it possible to receive msg in it from service? private Handler handler = new Handler() { @Override public void handleMessage(Message msg) { // handling message from thread } } Thanks in advance.
