Question

I use this code for connection to my service, but when I put this line

this.bindService(service, conn, flags);

I receive error message: syntax error on token "}", { expected after this token ... (1)

here is all code in my class:

package com.flaxa.fixx;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.ComponentName;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.ServiceConnection;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.view.View;


public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }

    public void butonRunOnlyClickHandler(View target) {

        Intent activity = new Intent(this, com.flax.trainer.RunOnly.class);
        startActivity(activity);                
    }

    public void butonChallengeClickHandler(View target) {


    }

    public void butonProgramClickHandler(View target) {



    }

    public void butonCalculatorClickHandler(View target) {


    }


    ServiceConnection conn = new ServiceConnection() {

        @Override
        public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName name) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }

        @Override
        public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName name, IBinder service) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }

        this.bindService(new Intent("") , conn, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

    }; 

}

Can some one help my with bindService function, where I’m wrong??

Thanks

I suspect it is this line here:

this.bindService(new Intent("...") , conn, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);

You’re placing this statement inside your ServiceConnection declaration, but not inside
a method. Assuming you’re using the ServiceConnection from an Activity, you should move
this statement to your onCreate or onResume.
