Hi All, I'm trying to get my head around available Android's concurrency blocks. I have extensive experience on related subjects from the java enterprise world, so you can shoot low-level tech details at me no prob :)
So, AsyncTask is to be executed only once. My understanding, on the other hand, is that a handler/looper combination can be instantiated once and be fed messages, either once or scheduled. Given that android performance guide advises against excessive object creation, the confusion is natural. Is my general understanding of differences between subj 2 correct? Basically, AsyncTask provides a great deal of simplicity/readability into one's code sacrificing some resources (potentially), while Handler can be tuned more, but is just a less convenient option? Thanks in advance! Andrew --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
