Neither. The Activity will be a part of your existing application (and its process). However, it is not "part of the calling service". > The reason of the question is to know if the intent will still be > running while the service is running. Intents never "run". If, instead of "intent", you mean "activity", then, yes, if you start an activity, it will be on the screen, and it will be part of your process. If your service has not stopped itself or been stopped by anyone in the meantime, it too will be part of your process. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals/processes-and-threads.html -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in DC: http://marakana.com/training/android/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
