get SharedPreferences from a service

Question

I am trying to access shared preferences from a service. I have used the the following to save the value of text to a string...

SharedPreferences sharedPrefe         


        

Answer 1

I'm always using PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context). This is the same for all Contexts in your application.

A Service is a Context itself, so this would be sufficient:

PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
