Body
copied!<p>In my application, I am trying to start a service using Alarm manager. When I am clicking a button service should start in a particular time which I am giving. My code for Alarm Manager is given below:</p> <pre><code>public void onClick(View view) { if(view == m_btnActivate) { Calendar cur_cal = Calendar.getInstance(); cur_cal.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis()); cur_cal.add(Calendar.SECOND, 50); Log.d("Testing", "Calender Set time:"+cur_cal.getTime()); Intent intent = new Intent(DashboardScreen.this, ServiceClass.class); Log.d("Testing", "Intent created"); PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getService(DashboardScreen.this, 0, intent, 0); AlarmManager alarm_manager = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE); alarm_manager.set(AlarmManager.RTC, cur_cal.getTimeInMillis(), pi); Log.d("Testing", "alarm manager set"); Toast.makeText(this, "ServiceClass.onCreate()", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } } </code></pre> <p>And bellow is my Service Class:</p> <pre><code> public class ServiceClass extends Service{ @Override public void onCreate() { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super.onCreate(); Log.d("Testing", "Service got created"); Toast.makeText(this, "ServiceClass.onCreate()", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub return null; } @Override public void onDestroy() { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super.onDestroy(); } @Override public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super.onStart(intent, startId); Toast.makeText(this, "ServiceClass.onStart()", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); Log.d("Testing", "Service got started"); } } </code></pre> <p>If the service will start it should print the log messages in the service class. But it is not showing. Can any one help?</p>
