I\'m trying to download multiple files using IntentService. The IntentService donwloads them okey as expected one at a time, the only problem is that when the Internet is down t
UPDATE: I eventually implemented my own Intent Service using a thread that has a looper which checks the queue which in turn stores the intents passed from the startService(intent).
public class MyIntentService extends Service {
private BlockingQueue queue = new LinkedBlockingQueue();
public MyIntentService(){
super();
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
new Thread(queueController).start();
Log.e("onCreate","onCreate is running again");
}
boolean killed = false;
Runnable queueController = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
while (true) {
try {
Download d =queue.take();
if (killed) {
break;
}
else {
d.downloadFile();
Log.e("QueueInfo","queue size: " + queue.size());
}
}
catch (InterruptedException e) {
break;
}
}
Log.e("queueController", "queueController has finished processing");
Log.e("QueueInfo","queue size: " + queue.toString());
}
};
class Download {
String name;
//Download files process
void downloadFile() {
//Download code here
}
Log.e("Download","Download being processed is: " + name);
}
public void setName(String n){
name = n;
}
