Well you could only run on 2.2 devices, where task killers can't do this. Also these is a big difference between the process simply being killed (which both the platform and task killers may freely do) and then the service being restarted, and the entire service being force stopped (which users can do with the running services UI, and task killers could do prior to 2.2). The former is normal behavior that a service must expect and handle correctly. The latter says the user really does not want your service running and there is not much you can do about it. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer [email protected] Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.
