How is an Intent Service Declared in the Android Manifest?
Solution 1:
In your manifest you declare a service with android:name=".Communication"
, this means that your service class should be located in com.exercise.AndroidClient.Communication
Check that the packages are correct. Note that the "." (dot) refers to the root of your package (ie the package declared in the manifest). So, for example, if your package is com.exercise.AndroidClient
and your service class is under com.exercise.AndroidClient.services.Communication
you need to declare the service like this:
<service android:enabled="true" android:name=".services.Communication" />
Or specify the full package:
<service android:enabled="true" android:name="com.exercise.AndroidClient.services.Communication" />
Solution 2:
Nothing different same as a regular one
Here is mine
<service android:name=".MyIntentService" android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:enabled="true"/>
If yours is not working try something like
<service android:name="com.my.qualified.MyIntentService" android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:enabled="true"/>
EDIT
When you go to settings >> application >> running services the list of running services will be displayed.
The android:icon will be thumb image
and androin:label will be the display text
