Hi guys,
I have spend over an hour trying to make this work now. I must be
missing something obvious, but no amount of searching is working.
I am trying to schedule a task to run every few minutes, and i am
trying to do it using scheduleAtFixedRate().
I am testing this in a very basic hello world app to isolate it from
the rest of my project. I have a very simple app with one Activity
and in its onCreate() method i have the following code:
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
final Runnable task = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "RUN!",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
};
final ScheduledExecutorService locationUdateScheduler =
Executors.newScheduledThreadPool(1);
locationUdateScheduler.scheduleAtFixedRate(
task, 1, 10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}
For some reason i can not work out, when i run this I never see the
toast message. Any help debugging this would be much appreciated.
p.s. i have a vague hunch it might be because i have not added
something to the manifest file, but searching around the internet
reveals nothing of relevance.
