B4J Question Memory resident application

[mvera]

Hi. It is possible in b4j to leave an application in memory.

I need every x time to check the database and if it finds something, warn the user.

Thank you

Mmmm short answer is YES,

if it is a ui application, if it is not closed, there wont be any problem.

If it is a non ui application, it will stay there until the process is killed via task manager.

Check this library for UI apps: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...-the-system-tray-notifications.37534/#content

I would definitely say yes
With a UI b4j app, use the Main class to show a quick plash form of sorts and set up a system tray icon. If I'm not mistaken, iconified forms do not show in the task bar by default, so after minimising the app, only the system tray icon will tell that the app is running.
