Hello Android Beginners!
We launched Xtify a few months ago – since then, there has been a
tremendous response from the mobile development community for our free
Push Notifications Platform. We wanted to let you know that Xtify is
currently free for developers with 500,000 or fewer users!

Jake,
The error is in the way your code instantiates ComponentName.
Instead of:
ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName(this, ZMUpdateService.class);
Do this:
ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName(this,*ZmanMinderAppWidget*.class);
The error message was trying to convey same
Hi --
Thanks for replying. I also have a logging printout in the
onStartCommand() method, and that does show as being called.
If onStartCommand() is called, doesn't that mean my startService()
from my Activity has indeed started my IntentService?
Who ultimately calls onHandleIntent()? That's

Betty,
Make sure your service calls base class methods in onCreate() and
onStart(). Intents for processing are queued to a worker thread by
IntentService.onStart. The worker thread is set up by onCreate.
class BettysService extends IntentService {
@Override
public void onCreate() {

Kostya,
Thanks. That worked like a charm.
I noticed in sample AppWidget code that does not use a service, that it
iterates the appWidgetIds array so that it updates all instances of the
widget. However, in sample code that uses a Service, that iteration is
not done. Is that because it is not
Jake,
onUpdate is passed an explicit list of just the widget ids that need to
be updated. Supposedly, there could be widgets that belong to this
provider but don't need updating (e.g. on a scrolled-off home screen
portion).
Pushing a RemoveViews object to a paricular widget is done by

Kostya,
That makes perfect sense. It seems like a service-based update is
really the right way to go. It avoids any potential timeout issue and
is allows updating of all widgets at once.
Thanks for your help.

Jake,
Using a service for a widget that's not doing anything lengthy to
prepare updates seems like a bit of an overkill. Certainly it works, but
probably not necessary.
On the other hand, using a service is definitely the way to go for
widgets that fetch data from the Internet or some other

Hi,
Your onCreate method is not calling the default:
super.onCreate( icicle );
Also, I would wrap the body of the code in a try{ } catch( Exception ex
) clause.
Hope this helps,

Thanks but I really prefer to view LogCat in Eclipse because it is so
much easier to find what you want. In Eclipse, for example, user-
generated log output is split into individual tabs based on the tags
you set. Also, in the main log tab everything is color coded. To

We are well aware of the issues with the logcat panel in DDMS.
We hope to get around to see sooner rather than later but we've got a

Hello everybody. Thanks for the suggestions. I guess the problem is I
am learning Java as well and at the same time I am learning Android.
So it's sort of hard for me to follow the conventions and the syntax.
But I do try to look into the existing questions related to the

It worked now. Thank you very much everyone. :)
