Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas or workarounds for solving the following problem:
1. an AudioTrack (MODE_STATIC) is created from a service, 2. this AudioTrack is played 3. the service is killed (by the OS or the user explicitly) before it could call stop() / release() on the AudTrack 4. I am left with the sound being played until the phone is rebooted, since there is NO way I know of to get a hold on the AudioTrack instance after the service process is killed. Now there would be no issue at all, if the Service had something like Activity:onPause() - a method that is guaranteed to get called in the lifecycle. But it does not. onDestroy() gets called only if the service is getting stopped, not when its process is being mercilessly killed. Is there ANY way to detect in a Process that we are about to be killed in an ugly manner? How does the MediaPlaybackService mange to stop playback of a song when I kill it? As far as I can tell, none of the AudioTrack's native_stop() / native_release() / native_finalize() methods get called in this scenario, leaving the system in an erroneous/inconsistent state. Thank you kindly for any pointers, -Szabolcs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
