Hi all I'm writing an app that uploads files to a web service. My question is how to write a Service to handle this: I want to upload in a background thread (or process - not sure of the precise wording), so that the user can go to other applications without interrupting the upload, and show a notification / kill the thread when the upload is complete.
I'm guessing it should be a Service, with a Notification to show the user what's going on: but should it be a LocalService or a RemoteService, as per the API examples? And do I need to call a new thread once I start the service, or do all services by definition run in a different thread? thanks, Anna -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
