Hello Everyone, I have created a small util which is a service, I would like to reuse this util in my future projects.
I have exported /src /gen folders to jar. I have skipped, /res folder and AndroidManifest.xml files. I have tried including this in my new app activity and reuse the service. But I get the error message "Unable to start service Intent ". I have enclosed the Manifest XML and outline of my project. My Questions are: 1. Have I exported the right files to JAR? 2. Any other information needs to be added in my AndroidManifest.XML (in App, not in Service) to reuse the service provided by the JAR. Can someone help me to point out where have I gone wrong? Thanks in Advance, Vinay ----------------- Service manifest.xml ------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; package="com.ere.SDKUtil" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0"> <application android:debuggable="true"> <service android:name="SDKUtil"></service> <receiver android:name="BootUpReceiver" android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" android:enabled="true"></receiver> </application> <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" /> <uses-permission android:name="...
