I have two apps, one runs in namespace com.gtosoft.voyager and the other is com.gtosoft.dash. From com.gtosoft.dash I would like to start up the service which is defined in com.gtosoft.voyager...
I think I need an intent, but what arg(s) would I pass to the intent before kicking it off with startService()?
If they were in the same package I could just use
Intent svc=new Intent (SettingsActivity.this,VoyagerService.class);
startService(svc);
Snippet of Manifest which defines the service
<application android:icon="@drawable/voyagercarlogo" android:label="@string/app_name" android:debuggable="false">
<provider android:name="com.gtosoft.voyager.VoyagerCProvider"
android:authorities="com.gtosoft.voyager"/>
<service android:name=".VoyagerService"/>
<activity android:name=".SettingsActivity"
android:label="Voyager"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
