Re: [android-developers] Download Manager: Pause & Resume

[himanshu]

Ok thank you.  For now, because of lack of pause/resume, I'll have to stick 
with stop/recreate.

Then it seems you're relying on unofficial behavior, which would indicate
this is not necessarily a bug, since it's likely not intended to be used
this way.

Sorry, don't really have an answer for you on how to achieve what you're
looking for, but it doesn't appear to be a bug, per se.

Re: [android-developers] Download Manager: Pause & Resume

[himanshu]

Actually its not a public API of DownloadManager. 

DownloadProvider documentation 

 ( 
and platform code  
)
 
clearly indicates that COLUMN_CONTROL is for pausing and resuming from 
Apps. 

And on setting COLUMN_CONTROL to CONTROL_PAUSED (1)  leads to pausing ( 
initially that column is null when I read it before setting it to 
CONTROL_PAUSED) .
And after that, I see that after sometime COLUMN_STATUS is set to 
STATUS_PAUSED_BY_APP

Also COLUMN_CURRENT_BYTES  stops updating, so that indicates that pausing 
works. 

Next when I want to resume, I set COLUMN_CONTROL to CONTROL_RUN. But it 
stays in that state, without getting resumed.

Where in the API does it indicate that this is how you pause a download?

[android-developers] Download Manager: Pause & Resume

[himanshu]

I'm able to Pause a download by setting COLUMN_CONTROL to CONTROL_PAUSED 
But when I resume a download by setting COLUMN_CONTROL to CONTROL_RUN, *it 
doesn't work*. 
The download stays in paused state. 

Is that a bug ?
