Android Question Start Service every morning

[imgsimonebiliato]

Hello,
I need to start a service every morning at 10:00, after executing a query.
If there are some results from the query, I want to display a notification, else not.

I can't understand how to start a service at a specific time and only after executing this query.
Please, help

In this topic http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/posts/280129/ I wrote a code to start a service every midnight. Have a look.

Yes, thank you.
Please, if I want instead the next day, after only 5 minutes?

But in your case you can simply use StartServiceAt which schedule the start of a service in the given time.
You only have to check not to schedule an already past time.
So, if now is before 10:00 then schedule for today at ten o'clock. If 10 is already past, schedule for tomorrow at 10.
In the Sub Service_Start you can use StartServiceAt in order to schedule the next task,

It is the same. Use a period. Dim p as period. P.minute and so on. Just like p.days

It also depends on 'after only 5 minutes' from what?
If it is from now you can just call StartServiceAt with a scheduled time of date time.now + 5*60*1000 (5 minutes x 60 seconds x ticksXsecond)

Thank you.. Please, if I have to execute a query, this method, can be created in the service module? Or in the main activity

Which method? (And why we don't continue in the Italian forum so we can write in our mother tongue?
