Hi! I'm trying to find the "correct" way to do the following:
. I have an activity with a button that starts a repeating task in the background. That is, if the user goes away from my activity, I want my task to still be scheduled and executed every x minutes. . I want a status TextView to be displayed on the activity, and if the task happens to start executing while my activity is showing, the TextView should be updated so the user can be aware of what's going on. So basically, is there a way to start a scheduled background repeating task and be notified when it is executed? >From what I saw in the sample applications, I understand I'm supposed to use AlarmManager and a Service but I'm not sure about the notification part. Thanks a lot for your help. BoD --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
