Hi guys,
I am a little confused about the difference between services and processes in Android. From what I understood: - each package may run as one process - therefore an activity is a process - a service runs in the main thread of an activity (therefore it needs to run in the same process) - but from what I know a service uses another address space than the hosting activity - because I don't know of another way in Linux to create a new virtual memory space than by using a new process I assume, that a service is actually a new process - how are AIDL IPC calls synchronized when they are different processes? I would very much appreciate any arguments/answers to any of the statements!
