Are there examples that demonstrate services calling back into the activity? For an activity to call into a service, a lot has to happen: craft the AIDL, implement the stub in the service, create an IBinder for the interface, return said binder in the service's onBind(), etc. I have difficulty believing there's all that work for an activity to call a service, but a service calling an activity "just works". At the same time, I'd like to think there's an AIDL way for an activity to expose an interface to the service, but it's not obvious how the binders work in that direction. I feel like I'm missing a step here. Any pointers?
