[android-developers] Running wallpaper to react to changes in SharedPreferences
Hi. (i know it's been asked in different forms already) I've written the live wallpaper (there can't be enough ;) and it has display settings. The problem is that when after the WP is being chosen if I go to WP selection, choose the same one, tinker with settings, the preview window reflect changes, the current running one does not. I assume that it's because those are two separate processes and SharedPreferences notify inside same process only (so far). So the question is is the broadcast intent the only option? sendWallpaperCommand doesn't work if you're not the view host, no- create binding(my first idea) to service is impossible because onBind is final. I mean I can do that but it's somewhat strange that there are settings for WP and no standard and easy way to notify running instance about that.

What gives you an idea there isn't a standard and easy way for getting both preview and actual WP instances notified about preference changes? I've never had similar problems you're describing here and find it possible there's a flaw in your SharedPreference handling instead. Which, for some odd reason, was not included as a possible cause in your email at all ;) So please, do send some code relevant to SharedPreference handling which hopefully leads to more specific answer to your question. -- H -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
