I have a service S and a bunch of activities A,B,C,D etc. The service S is sending broadcasts. Activity A is currently manually registering a broadcastreceiver on onResume and unregistering the receiver on onPause. But I was thinking if it is possible to do all this "automagically" through the manifest, and to do away with the register/unregister calls.
Like, list the broadcast as an action filter for activity A, and then somehow explain to the constructor of activity A that it should also behave like a broadcastreceiver (and serve the onReceive function). I tried to use "public class MainScreen extends Activity implements BroadcastReceiver" but that is not liked by Eclipse ("The type BroadcastReceiver cannot be a superinterface of MainScreen; a superinterface must be an interface") So how do I tell the activity to listen for the broadcasts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
