So, I've read the android AIDL documentation and have a general idea
of how RPC works between an Activity and a Service. However, for my
application it seems overboard to implement such features: basically,
I want to pass a Service a nice handler so its thread can pass data to
my Activity. Currently I'm getting around this by using a static
public member (a hack) but I would prefer just passing a Handler
object in the Service's starting Intent. E.g. I can easily pass ints
to my service upon creation:
int x = 0;
Intent svc = new Intent(this, MyService.class);
svc.putExtra("x",x);
startService(svc);
However since a Handler isn't serialize-able , I haven't found a way
to pass it to the service without a simple static member hack. Any
insight? Or, am I just going to have to suck it up and do a formal RPC
to the service?
