I am not certain how to resolve this, but in one Activity I call
startService, and then immediately call to start the next Activity:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(mContext, MyService.class);
myIntent.putExtra("data1", data1Array);
myIntent.putExtra("data2", data2Array);
myIntent.putExtra("names", namesList.toArray(new String[0]));
startService(myIntent); // <== This works, the service starts,
begins to process the data
Intent intent = new Intent();
myIntent.putExtra("data1", data1Array);
myIntent.putExtra("data2", data2Array);
myIntent.putExtra("names", namesList.toArray(new String[0]));
intent.setClassName(
"my.package",
"my.package.SecondActivity");
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP
| Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent); // <== This works, goes to the next activity
This works, the service starts, and begins to process the data as expected.
This works, so I am now in the new Activity, and want to connect to my
Service so I can get data from the callback interface.
So I have this in the second Activity:
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if (bindService(new Intent(IMyService.class.getName()),
mConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE)) {
Toast.makeText(mContext, "Bound to service succeeded",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(mContext, "Bound to service failed",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
And this fails.
So, if the service is already running, how do I connect to this service so
I can get the updates?
IMyService is created by using a .aidl file, btw.
