Android Question Restart a service

[wl]

Hi,

My app runs a service and in some cases it need to stop the service and restart it.

I do this by (code in the service):

StartServiceAt("Service_Main", nextConnectAt, True)
StopService("")

where nextConnectAt would tradionally be a second in the future.

Could it be a problem that service has not yet fully stopped before it was scheduled to restart ?
And also: would it be better to first stop and then schedule the restart ?

Or: would it be better to reschedule the service in the Service_Destroy ?

Thanks !

Every time you call StartServiceAt it cancels the previous schedule and restarts the service.

Thanks NJDude,

I was jut wondering if there could be an impact that I restart the exact same service from within this servcice before it was fully destroyed.

Thanks

You can do that. Thats how the service schedules itself.
