android BroadcastReceiver called twice


i am working on chat project

what i did here is service with the connection staff and i set a broadcast receiver to get the data from the service

this is the receiver code

mMessageReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            try {
                final String code = intent.getExtras().get("code").toString();
                final JSONObject Message = new JSONObject(intent.getExtras().get("msg").toString());
                runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        Log.d("test","test");
                    }
                });
            } catch (JSONException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    };

    LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mMessageReceiver,new IntentFilter("data"));

the problem is when i close the activity the code inside runOnUiThread called more than one time

if i close the activity and open it it called 2 times if i did it again it called 3 times and so on


Solution

  • You need to unregister the broadcast receiver after your activity is paused. in onPause() method of your activity. LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).unregisterReceiver(m‌​MessageReceiver)
