Hello all,

I am in the planning phase of my first application for Android, and it
will be centred around running particular activities at particular
times. Basically it will be like an alarm clock app, but instead of
triggering an alarm it will trigger something else.

I have looked at the alarm clock source here -
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/AlarmClock.git;a=tree;f=src/com/android/alarmclock;h=1c8c55dd8eaa6b54bacf2b4f4afc1d8824424f48;hb=HEAD

What I can't work out is how Android triggers the alarm. ie. if an
alarm is set for a particular time, does the alarm clock poll the
handset's time each minute? Or is it via another way, like a deeper
scheduling API function?

Thanks for any help offered!
