Off the cuff, I would recommend the service use broadcastIntent() and your activity receive those intents. This provides flexibility: -- Your service might support not only your activity, but an activity some other developer creates, effectively reusing your service's capabilities -- Your activity might be able to support IM capabilities provided by multiple services, if those services commit to a consistent set of Intents for different events -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development -- coming in June 2008! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
