Android Question Using SetExactAndAllowWhileIdle to set 5 different wakeup times

[rleiman]

Hi Everyone,

I'm using SetExactAndAllowWhileIdle to set up a single wakeup time. Can it be used to set 5 different wakeup times? In other words can it be called multiple times with different longs and there will be a wakeup on each of them?

Thanks.

No. You need to set the next scheduled time each time.

This code will help you: [B4X] Calculating the next scheduled time

Hi Erel,

Does it mean you can only set 1 wakeup at a time? I would like to set 5 of them when my app starts and not set 1 and when the serverce is woken up set the next one.

Yes. when the service runs you need to shedule the next time.

Ok. I will code my app for running it that way. I hope in a future B4A release setting multiple wake ups will be available. Anyway I like using SetExactAndAllowWhileIdle.
