IMHO, the AsyncTask should be the driver, not be driven, so you would not need the AsyncTask to be public. The AsyncTask should know when you are 1/3 complete, 2/3 complete, etc. because it is one calling your other modules to have work be completed. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android 2.x Programming Books: http://commonsware.com/books -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
