Hi everyone :)
it's the first message I post in this group, even though I lurked and
posted from time to time in #android-dev.
I have a question about IPC.
At work we are developing 2 applications:
1 - a service running in background and preparing some data.
2 - an application that takes the data from the service and uses it
for something.
The problem is that service 1) should be able to pass an object like
class CustomObject{
private AnotherCustomObject aco = new AnotherCustomObject();
public AnotherCustomObject getObject(){
return aco;
}
}
and application 2) should be able to retrieve such object and call the
method getObject()
How do I achieve this? I was thinking of doing like so:
1) create an aidl file for AnotherCustomObject and for CustomObject.
Something like ICustomObject and IAnotherCustomObject.
2) on the service 1) side, make CustomObject implement ICustomObject
and Parcelable and AnotherCustomObject implement IAnotherCustomObject
and Parcelable and write the implementation of the methods.
3) on the application 2) side, import the aidl files and use the
automatically generated interfaces to manipulate the custom objects.
Is this the correct way to do this in your opinion? In point 2) should
I extend the stubs instead?
Thanks in advance for your hints.
Giordano
