I'm looking at the In-app Billing example and found something interesting. (http://developer.android.com/guide/google/play/billing/billing_integrate.html#billing-download)
I have known that Service must be started with startService() or bindService(), but in the example BillingService is made by BillingService() constructor which I've never seen before. In the BillingService.java I found the comment "on behalf of the application" and attachBaseContext(). I guess maybe this is the reason? (I don't fully understand what attachBaseContext() does, but the name tells me.) Please give me some explanation. BTW, is using Service() constructor permitted / encouraged by any means? This seems to me like Activity myActivity = new MyActivity() :( -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
