I’ve got a simple question: I’m using commonsware’s wakefulintentservice in my application and I got it working, but how do I know if the WakefulIntentService is still running or not? Can I for example put a onDestroy in the WakefulIntentService class and let that log something or is there another way to see wheter the WakefulIntentService is running or not?

Thanks in advance!

    I’m using commonsware’s wakefulintentservice in my application and I got it working, but how do I know if the WakefulIntentService is still running or not?

    If you mean “is it ever running”, you see whether the work that it is supposed to do is getting done.

    If you mean “is it running right this moment”, examine your threads in DDMS, I suppose. I have never really worried about this question.

    Can I for example put a onDestroy in the WakefulIntentService class and let that log something

    Sure.

    UPDATE

    Also, adb shell dumpsys activity services will list the active services. I have not tried this with a WakefulIntentService, but AFAIK it should show up there.
