Hello forum!
I am trying to understand how to deal with foreground services since something it is not working randomly in my app.
I have an app with few services and when i need to do something when the app is in background i execute each service with something like this:
My questions are:
- should i use Service.StartForeground(100, n) in EACH service or can i start in foreground just ONE service to allow all the others to run? (on official documentation it refers just to a single one: "It has a foreground service" - https://developer.android.com/about/versions/oreo/background but what about B4A?)
- if i must start in foreground EACH service (with the same ID tho display just one notification) what happens if i stop a foreground service with the same ID from a different service with Service.StopForeground(100) when the first one hasn't finished yet?
Thanks in advance!
