Do you know how to start a service? you do a startService() on a context...
Stopping the service is now literally calling a stopService() on the context... So now all you have to do is call these methods. You might think that you have to keep the global application state around, but this isn't really so bad, because your app and the service are both running at the same time (i.e., they are *not* separate processes, it's just that what you see in an activity is what people usually think of as the app..., the service will run within your app!) kris On Mon, Nov 7, 2011 at 5:31 PM, Goutom <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi > I have an app with one screen(just one button).
