Well, Android could kill anything "mid-stream" by terminating your process, if it needs to reclaim memory. However, if your service is brand new (e.g., had been previously destroyed in your last poll cycle), that is unlikely. However, the device might fall asleep before onHandleIntent() gets invoked. Take a look at WakefulIntentService for some code to work around this: http://github.com/commonsguy/cwac-wakeful -- Mark Murphy CommonsWare [email protected] http://commonsware.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
