Android Question Terminating WebSocket PushService Properly

[iCAB]

I am facing some difficulties after adding Websocket Push Services code to my application. I particular
I started getting "Unfortunately ProgramName has stopped" after terminating the app.
The issue is due to some uninitialized variables that are being access by the Service ( please note that there is no issue while the application is running as all these variables are initialized proper during run time ).
I am not sure what I am doing wrong in here, but here is what I have done so far to terminate the service when the application is terminated

Code:
#Region Service Attributes#StartAtBoot: false#StartCommandReturnValue: android.app.Service.START_STICKY#End Region
Code:
Sub Activity_DestroyTry
StopService(WSPushService)Log( "destroyed" )
Catch
Log(LastException)
EndTry
End Sub
I have also commented out: StartServiceAt in Service_Start

Don't you want to receive push messages when your app is in the background?

The perfect scenario will be to receive push notifications when the app is in the background, but not after it is terminated by the user.
Once the user closes the app, I don't want to receive the messages in this particular app.

I think that it is better to use a service to manage the push messages. It will be simpler.

Make sure that the service is not a sticky service, it doesn't start at boot and remove the StartServiceAt calls.

You should also stop the timers when the service is destroyed.

Stopping the timer did the job.
Thank you
