That's a possibility. Or, I might use this function I wrote:
void replaceCurrentTask(android.os.AsyncTask<Void, Void, Long>
newTask){
if (currentTask != null) {
currentTask.cancel(true);
while (!currentTask.isCancelled() &&
currentTask.getStatus()!
=AsyncTask.Status.FINISHED) trytosleep(1);
}
currentTask=newTask;
currentTask.execute();
}
