Android Question Advice of How to choose between one service or another

[Alberto Michelis]

Hi, in my app have two services, sometime I need server 1 to be running and som the service 2.

Im using the following code in a "Code Module", it is ok to do it this way?

Main.Versionnivel selects the service to run

Sub ChooseReadingService
    Log(">>>> choose server version=" &Main.VersionNivel)
    If Main.VersionNivel<>0 Then
        If ServicioCorriendo<>"PortIt" Then
            ServicioCorriendo="PortIt"
            Log("---- tuns on service PortIt ---")
            StopService(LeeWebRava)
            StopService(LeeWeb)
            StartService(LeeWeb)
            CallSub(LeeWeb,"Timer1_Tick")
        Else
            Log("---- still running service PortIt ---")
        End If   
    Else   
        If ServicioCorriendo<>"RavaDelayed" Then
            ServicioCorriendo="RavaDelayed"
            Log("---- turns on service Rava ---")
            StopService(LeeWeb)
            StopService(LeeWebRava)
            StartService(LeeWebRava)
            CallSub(LeeWebRava,"Timer1_Tick")
        Else
            Log("---- still running service Rava ---")
        End If   
    End If   
End Sub

Thanks

Any advice?

Use CallSubDelayed instead. Your current code will not work properly. The CallSub will do nothing if the service wasn't running before as StartService doesn't immediately starts the service.
