Hello, I had some conceptual doubts about Intents. Let me explain it with respect to one of my upcoming applications:
The application will be having three major logical facets: The call control part, registration part and subscriptions (to a resource on the remote server). I am thinking of designing these three logical facets as individual android services. On application startup, i am thinking of creating a master bootstrapping service, that invokes these other 3 services and starts them up. Similarly, when the application needs to shut down, this master service will perform the shutdown procedures. For doing so, i will need to use Intents as per the developer guide. ( startService(Intent) for starting my services and stopService (Intent) for stopping my services respectively). As my requirement is only to signal the service and start it, i will specify the absolute class name of the target service to be started. My doubt comes here. The Intent object has 2 characteristics: action and data. As my 3 logical services described above, do not have a UI component (will be handled separately), providing an action is not relevant for this use case. Data has to be represented as a URI. So will the class name of the target service be specified as a URI ? Secondly, class name here implies the entire package namespace of the class (org.test....) ?
