ANDROID - service called by AlarmManager wont stop

问题:

i have a service getting started by Alarm Manager set to be repeated:

AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
serviceSaveSample = new Intent(RunActivity.this,SaveSampleService.class);
alarmSaveSample = PendingIntent.getService(getApplicationContext(), 9988766, serviceSaveSample, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis() + (secondsToSample*1000) , secondsToSample*1000, alarmSaveSample);

my onDestory function:

AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
if(alarmSaveSample!=null)
alarm.cancel(alarmSaveSample);
if(alarmSendSample!=null)
alarm.cancel(alarmSendSample);

// stop services
if(serviceSendSample!=null)
stopService(serviceSendSample);
if(serviceSaveSample!=null)
stopService(serviceSaveSample);

super.onDestroy();

when i exit the app (by clearing it from memory in main screen) i get the error:

any idea why ?

maybe its important to say that this code run inside FragmentActivity

回答1:

 public void SetAlarm(Context context)
     {
         AlarmManager am=(AlarmManager)context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
         Intent i = new Intent(context, Alarm.class);
         PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, i, 0);
         am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis(), 1000 * 60 * 10, pi); // Millisec * Second * Minute
     }     




 public void CancelAlarm(Context context)
         {
             Intent intent = new Intent(context, Alarm.class);
             PendingIntent sender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, 0);
             AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
             alarmManager.cancel(sender);
         }

回答2:

as you can see from your stack trace, you're experiencing a NullPointerException in your Controller class.

 E/AndroidRuntime(24267): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
10-31 13:58:32.800: E/AndroidRuntime(24267):   at com.b2e.m2v.Controller.getLocation(Controller.java:75) 

this means that something went wrong there. from your comment I understand that that code looks a little like this:

public Location getLocation(){ 
    Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
    return location;
}

this means that your variable locationManager is null when you're trying to get it.

Change the line

alarmSaveSample = PendingIntent.getService(getApplicationContext(), 9988766, serviceSaveSample, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);

to

alarmSaveSample = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), 9988766, serviceSaveSample, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);

ie Service to Broadcast

For some reason, despite cancelling the former in about umpteen different positions it would, variably, keep reawakening the service indefinitely. YMMV
