    <p>On an application I'm working on the onCreate starts a service with startService() and subsequently after, that same activity calls bindService(to that same service) in its onStart. The problem is the Sevice isn't initialized until well after the onStart has completed which causes a fatal error from a nullpointer exception caused by a null service. I don't know how to get around this without using a half-assed solution and I have no idea how the onStart is finishing before the onCreate.</p> <p>Suggestions? Any help is much appreciated.</p> <pre><code>public class PNetworkService extends Service { private final IBinder binder = new NtwkSvcBinder(this); @Override public void onCreate() { // Creates a HandlerThread to process the network events. HandlerThread handlerThread = new HandlerThread("SystemStartService", Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_BACKGROUND); // Starts the network thread. handlerThread.start(); // Obtains looper so that that the NetworkServiceHandler is bound to that looper. serviceLooper = handlerThread.getLooper(); // Create the Network Service Handler. nsh = new NetworkServiceHandler(serviceLooper, this); messenger = new Messenger(nsh); } @Override public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) { Log.i(TAG, "onStartCommand"); return START_STICKY; } @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent i) { Log.i(TAG, "onBind called"); return binder; } public void setExtHandler(Handler extHandler) { Log.i(TAG, "setting exthandler"); nsh.setExtHandler(extHandler); } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
