Hi,
i have a little frontend showing a list of items that it will retrieve
from a service. I want that service to be started in a separate thread
so the UI is still responding to user interaction while waiting for
that service to call a callback method.
What is the best way to start the service in a detached thread? My
current solution is:
new Thread() {
@Override
public void run() {
// start Service
Intent intent = new Intent("MyServiceAction");
try {
startService(intent);
}
catch(Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Unable to start Service: " +
e.getMessage());
}
}
}.start();
It seems that the service is still in the same thread as my UI. The
debugger doesn't show an additional thread. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for help
Lutz
