我正在编写我的第一个Android应用程序,试图弄清楚服务和活动之间的通信。我有一个服务,将在后台运行,并做一些gps和基于时间的日志记录。我将有一个活动,将用于启动和停止服务。

因此,首先,我需要能够确定当活动启动时服务是否正在运行。这里还有一些其他的问题,所以我想我可以解决(但请随意提供建议)。

My real problem: if the Activity is running and the Service is started, I need a way for the Service to send messages to the Activity. Simple Strings and integers at this point - status messages mostly. The messages will not happen regularly, so I don't think polling the service is a good way to go if there is another way. I only want this communication when the Activity has been started by the user - I don't want to start the Activity from the Service. In other words, if you start the Activity and the Service is running, you will see some status messages in the Activity UI when something interesting happens. If you don't start the Activity, you will not see these messages (they're not that interesting).

似乎我应该能够确定服务是否正在运行,如果是的话,将活动添加为侦听器。然后在Activity暂停或停止时删除Activity作为监听器。这真的可能吗?我能想出的唯一方法是让活动实现Parcelable并构建一个AIDL文件,这样我就可以通过服务的远程接口传递它。这似乎是多余的,但我不知道活动应该如何实现writeToParcel() / readFromParcel()。

有没有更简单或更好的方法?谢谢你的帮助。

对于稍后对此感兴趣的人来说,在示例目录:/apis/app/RemoteService.java中有来自谷歌的通过AIDL处理此问题的示例代码

To follow up on @MrSnowflake answer with a code example. This is the XABBER now open source Application class. The Application class is centralising and coordinating Listeners and ManagerInterfaces and more. Managers of all sorts are dynamically loaded. Activity´s started in the Xabber will report in what type of Listener they are. And when a Service start it report in to the Application class as started. Now to send a message to an Activity all you have to do is make your Activity become a listener of what type you need. In the OnStart() OnPause() register/unreg. The Service can ask the Application class for just that listener it need to speak to and if it's there then the Activity is ready to receive.

通过应用程序类,你会看到比这个更多的战利品。

与服务通信有三种明显的方式:

使用意图 使用AIDL 使用服务对象本身(作为单例)

在你的情况下,我选择第三种。对它自己的服务做一个静态引用,并在onCreate()中填充它:

void onCreate(Intent i) {
  sInstance = this;
}

创建一个静态函数MyService getInstance(),该函数返回静态sInstance。

Then in Activity.onCreate() you start the service, asynchronously wait until the service is actually started (you could have your service notify your app it's ready by sending an intent to the activity.) and get its instance. When you have the instance, register your service listener object to you service and you are set. NOTE: when editing Views inside the Activity you should modify them in the UI thread, the service will probably run its own Thread, so you need to call Activity.runOnUiThread().

您需要做的最后一件事是删除activity . onpause()中对侦听器对象的引用,否则您的活动上下文实例将泄漏,这不好。

注意:此方法仅在应用程序/活动/任务是唯一访问服务的进程时有用。如果不是这种情况,你必须使用选项1。或2。

使用LocalBroadcastManager注册一个接收器来监听本地服务在你的应用内发送的广播,参考如下:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/content/LocalBroadcastManager.html

除了LocalBroadcastManager,事件总线和信使已经回答了这个问题,我们可以使用未决意图从服务通信。

正如我在博客中提到的

Communication between service and Activity can be done using PendingIntent.For that we can use createPendingResult().createPendingResult() creates a new PendingIntent object which you can hand to service to use and to send result data back to your activity inside onActivityResult(int, int, Intent) callback.Since a PendingIntent is Parcelable , and can therefore be put into an Intent extra,your activity can pass this PendingIntent to the service.The service, in turn, can call send() method on the PendingIntent to notify the activity via onActivityResult of an event. Activity public class PendingIntentActivity extends AppCompatActivity { @Override protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); PendingIntent pendingResult = createPendingResult( 100, new Intent(), 0); Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), PendingIntentService.class); intent.putExtra("pendingIntent", pendingResult); startService(intent); } @Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { if (requestCode == 100 && resultCode==200) { Toast.makeText(this,data.getStringExtra("name"),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); } } Service public class PendingIntentService extends Service { private static final String[] items= { "lorem", "ipsum", "dolor", "sit", "amet", "consectetuer", "adipiscing", "elit", "morbi", "vel", "ligula", "vitae", "arcu", "aliquet", "mollis", "etiam", "vel", "erat", "placerat", "ante", "porttitor", "sodales", "pellentesque", "augue", "purus" }; private PendingIntent data; @Override public void onCreate() { super.onCreate(); } @Override public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) { data = intent.getParcelableExtra("pendingIntent"); new LoadWordsThread().start(); return START_NOT_STICKY; } @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) { return null; } @Override public void onDestroy() { super.onDestroy(); } class LoadWordsThread extends Thread { @Override public void run() { for (String item : items) { if (!isInterrupted()) { Intent result = new Intent(); result.putExtra("name", item); try { data.send(PendingIntentService.this,200,result); } catch (PendingIntent.CanceledException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } SystemClock.sleep(400); } } } } }

另一种方法是通过活动和服务本身使用带有假模型类的观察者,实现MVC模式变化。我不知道这是否是最好的方法,但这种方法对我来说很有效。如果你需要一些例子,我会张贴一些东西。

其他注释中没有提到的另一种方法是使用bindService()从活动绑定到服务,并在ServiceConnection回调中获取服务的实例。如上所述http://developer.android.com/guide/components/bound-services.html
