JarCastingServiceConnector
Field and method binding for connecting with Android remote AIDL (or Remoter) services.
Replace the boiler plate service connection codes like -
public class ActivityWithoutServiceConnector extends Activity {
//remote service interface
private IEchoService mEchoService;
/**
* Service connection that gets call back when service is connected
*/
private ServiceConnection serviceConnection = new ServiceConnection() {
@Override
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName componentName, IBinder service) {
//get the service
mEchoService = IEchoService.Stub.asInterface(service);
}
@Override
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName componentName) {
mEchoService = null;
}
};
/**
* Connect with the remote service
*/
private void conectWithService() {
Intent serviceIntent = new Intent("util.serviceconnector.ECHO_SERVICE");
serviceIntent.setComponent(new ComponentName("util.serviceconnector.service", "util.serviceconnector.service.EchoService"));
startService(serviceIntent);
bindService(serviceIntent, serviceConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
conectWithService();
}
}
Replace that with
public class ActivityWithServiceConnector extends Activity {
@ServiceInfo(serviceIntent = "util.serviceconnector.ECHO_SERVICE")
private IEchoService mEchoService;
@ServiceConnectionCallback
public void onServiceConnectionChanged(String serviceIntent, boolean connected) throws RemoteException {
}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
ServiceConnector.bind(this, this);
}
}
