I have a service which I believe to have running in the foreground, How do I check if my implementation is working?
private boolean isServiceRunning(String serviceName){
boolean serviceRunning = false;
ActivityManager am = (ActivityManager) this.getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
List<ActivityManager.RunningServiceInfo> l = am.getRunningServices(50);
Iterator<ActivityManager.RunningServiceInfo> i = l.iterator();
while (i.hasNext()) {
ActivityManager.RunningServiceInfo runningServiceInfo = i
.next();
if(runningServiceInfo.service.getClassName().equals(serviceName)){
serviceRunning = true;
if(runningServiceInfo.foreground)
{
//service run in foreground
}
}
}
return serviceRunning;
}
If you want to know if your service is running in foreground just open some others fat applications and then check if service is still running or just check flag service.foreground
.
