I'm planning to have an activity that send data to a remote service and vice-versa (and I need to use a Remote Service!). It is possible to set a callback that allows the activity sends data to a remote service? (the example with remote service uses callback to the communication Service - to - Activity). --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

The service only knows when -all- clients have unbound. You can certainly remove all callbacks at that point, but I that won't really cover all cases. If you look at the ApiDemos example, though, it does deal with things like the client process going away and clean up all callbacks at that point. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.

It means that ServiceConnection is not bound to the service. Just because you can call methods on the IBinder you got at some previous point doesn't mean you are still bound to it. (A little unfortunate, for for efficiency's sake there it is.)

I know i'm bound to the service (doing the bind in onCreate), because i can execute it's functions. so why is it unregistered and how can i prevent that ? -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.
