I have an activity to download with which I call the Intent service. There I process the API request call.
I want the activity to know if the service is working or not to show the tag for download.
I tried to determine if the service is working:
public void startUploadServiceTask() {
if (Util.isNetworkAvailable(mContext)) {
if (!isMyServiceRunning(UploadDriveService.class)) {
startService(new Intent(mContext,
UploadService.class));
}
} else {
Toast.makeText(mContext,
"Service is already running.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
} else {
Toast.makeText(mContext,
getString(R.string.please_check_internet_connection),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
private boolean isMyServiceRunning(Class<?> serviceClass) {
ActivityManager manager = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
for (RunningServiceInfo service : manager
.getRunningServices(Integer.MAX_VALUE)) {
Log.e("ALL SERVICE", service.service.getClassName().toString());
if (serviceClass.getName().equals(service.service.getClassName())) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
But in Activity Manager Running Service Info, I do not get the intent class service that I start, so it always costs false.
I used the answer to Broadcast calls for the API.
I even checked this code.
if(startService(someIntent) != null) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Service is already running", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "There is no service running, starting service..", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
But in this code, when checking the service, it starts the service again, so the service is called twice.
Please help me with this.
