Good morning everyone,
I have an activity that when executed, starts a service. Specifically GPSService, this service is put to wait until it reaches a latitude and longitude coordinates. When the coordinates are updated, the service sends the coordinates via LocalBroadcastManager to the activity that is waiting for it.
The problem I have is that the activity never recives anything.
Here I leave my activity:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private TextView latitude;
private TextView longitude;
private static final int PETITION_PERMISSION_LOCATION = 101;
private double dLatitude;
private double dLongitude;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
IntentFilter iff= new IntentFilter(GPSService.ACTION);
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mMessageReceiver, iff);
latitude = findViewById(R.id.lblLatitud);
longitude = findViewById(R.id.lblLongitud);
ejecuteService();
FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Snackbar.make(view, dLatitude + " : " + dLongitude, Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
.setAction("Action", null).show();
if (isMyServiceRunning(GPSService.class)){
stopService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, GPSService.class));
latitude.setText(String.valueOf(dLatitude));
longitude.setText(String.valueOf(dLongitude));
}else {
ejecuteService();
}
}
});
}
private BroadcastReceiver mMessageReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.e("onReceive","onReceive called");
dLatitude = intent.getDoubleExtra("latitude", 0);
dLongitude = intent.getDoubleExtra("longitude", 0);
Log.e("receiver", "Got Latitude: " + dLatitude);
Log.e("receiver", "Got Longitude: " + dLongitude);
}
};
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
private void ejecuteService(){
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this,
new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},

startService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, GPSService.class));
} else {
//Permission denied:
Log.e("PETITION PERMISSION", "Permission denied");
}
}
}
private boolean isMyServiceRunning(Class<?> serviceClass) {
ActivityManager manager = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
for (ActivityManager.RunningServiceInfo service : manager.getRunningServices(Integer.MAX_VALUE)) {
if (serviceClass.getName().equals(service.service.getClassName())) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
}
Here is the content of the service:

}
}

}
}
In the content of the Log you can see how the service works by updating the coordinates immediately. But the activity does not recive anything.
