[android-developers] Re: Running Application as Service
Hi, I am currently just registering Broadcast Receiver for reading incoming messages. And this also works in Background which is what I required. Now is that Broadcast Receiver unregistered by Android Application Manager automatically or will it be able to process every incoming message. I just want to read incoming message process it and if it contains a specific content then send the current location of that to the number from which the message arrived. Will just extending Broadcast Receiver do the work or will I need to implement it as Service so that it runs forever. I have checked the Broadcast Receiver it works for now. One more question when will this Broadcast Receiver be called. Suppose the mobile is switched on then will this receiver be registered automatically.

[android-developers] Re: Running Application as Service
Hi, I want to continuously listen for incoming messages in background. So what would be the best way of doing it? Shall I make that application as Service or just registering it as BroadCast Receiver would do. If I register the listener then will it keep on running continuously. This receiver should be able to receive all the incoming messages. Hope to get the reply soon.

Strictly speaking, that is not possible. > Will running application as Service solve this issue? Not really. Services can be killed by Android (e.g., low memory conditions) or by the user (e.g., Force Close button in Manage Applications). You can roll your own firmware and create daemons and such that are not subject to being killed. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Need help for your Android OSS project? http://wiki.andmob.org/hado --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
