问题
I want to run a Backgroundservice (FileObserver) that will look for any filechanges in the system (CREATE, DELETE, MOVE, ...). When I start my application it works a few seconds and logs everything fine. For example at taking a picture by the camera it logs that. After a few seconds the service is still listed in Settings => Developer Options => Running Services but does not work and log anything anymore.
Android Version: 7.0
Device: Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
I copied the code from Niza Siwale's answer here 1:1 and added only the Logs like that :
How to monitor folder for file changes in background?
@Override
public void onEvent(int event, final String path) {
if (event == FileObserver.OPEN) {
Log.v("Event: ", "Open" + path);
} else if (event == FileObserver.CREATE && (!path.equals(".probe"))) {
Log.v("Event: ", "Create" + path);
} else if (event == FileObserver.DELETE_SELF || event == FileObserver.DELETE) {
Log.v("Event: ", "Delete" + path);
} else if (event == FileObserver.MOVE_SELF || event == FileObserver.MOVED_FROM || event == FileObserver.MOVED_TO) {
Log.v("Event: ", "Move" + path);
}
}
Why is the service running in background (as I can see in Running Services) but not donig any logs, if something changes in the filesystem?
