AsyncTasks are not threads. They are chunks of work (like getting a web-document) that are executed on a pool of (background) threads.
Read the documentation of AsyncTask carefully. Figure out a way to have a pool of more than one background threads (happens 'automatically' for Android OS versions Donut --> Gingerbread, you need to do some extra work on Honeycomb). Then create a bunch of AsyncTasks at the same time on your UI thread (e.g. in some onXXXX() method call-back on in your onClick methods, etc) and call execute on them. Then the bunch of AsyncTasks will be executed on the pool of background threads. Be sure on implement onPostExecute to update your UI. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
