Re: [android-developers] Re: Is Application.onCreate() always called when broadcast receiver gets onReceive()?
Alex, When your BOOT_COMPLETE Broadcast receiver is called, your application subclass's onCreate() method would have been called for sure. Of course it is going to be called only once, but if you already have your data initialized and cached, there should be no reason why you could not access it. I guess, if you could throw in some code, it could help debug to find the answer. Also, check if you are doing some of the initialization work in a separate thread. If that is the case, then your broadcast receiver may get invoked before the thread completes. Ganesh.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Is Application.onCreate() always called when broadcast receiver gets onReceive()?
Your Application.onCreate is called only once for each process it runs in. (if you have multiple processes for your app, the Application.onCreate is called multiple times, but still only once per process). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Is Application.onCreate() always called when broadcast receiver gets onReceive()?
Right..., but you shouldn't spawn a new process for each onReceieve... kris On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 1:21 PM, Streets Of Boston flyingdutc...@gmail.com wrote: Your Application.onCreate is called only once for each process it runs in.

It is eminently possible, perhaps even likely, that each onReceive() will wind up in a separate process. If there are no other components running, Android will consider the process very eligible to be terminated once onReceive() completes. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 3.7 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Ah, right...
