android - Unable to start service when service in separate package -


if problem appreciate it.

i have activity starting service using alarmmanager , works fine. created new service (a modified copy) , giving error: java.lang.runtimeexception: unable start service...with intent {...(has extras) }: java.lang.classcastexception

i've done lot of searching , have checked manifest many times seems usual problem. both services declared, inside application tags , scoped. examples i've seen refer 1 service so, in case, i've tried several different ways code 2 services in manifest have found no valid version other 1 below.

i've tried several ways create intent assume problem lies in fact new service in different package (within same app).

i tried intent filter , custom action (see bottom) gave same error.

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="couk.jit.currencycheck1" android:versioncode="1" android:versionname="1.0.1" >  <uses-sdk     android:minsdkversion="8"     android:targetsdkversion="16" />  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.internet" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.access_network_state" />  <application     android:allowbackup="true"     android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"     android:label="@string/app_name"     android:theme="@style/apptheme" >     <activity         android:name="couk.jit.currencycheck1.mainmenu" ...         </activity>      <service         android:name="couk.jit.currencycheck1.serviceclass"         android:enabled="true" />     <service         android:name="couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.serviceclassxml"         android:enabled="true" />      <activity         android:name="couk.jit.currencycheck1.historyactivity"         android:label="@string/title_activity_history" >     </activity> </application> </manifest>

this version of activity code gives error.

import couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.serviceclassxml; ... intent intent; if (datasource == 0 || datasource == 1) intent = new intent(this, serviceclass.class); else { intent = new intent(this, serviceclassxml.class);   //gives error } pendingintent pintent = pendingintent.getservice(this, 0, intent, 0); alarmmanager alarm = (alarmmanager) getsystemservice(context.alarm_service); alarm.setrepeating(alarmmanager.rtc_wakeup, schedulestart.gettimeinmillis(), 60 * 1000, pintent);

these 2 versions not give error - service isn't reached. no log message, no action. (a)

//intent = new intent(this, serviceclassxml.class); //gives error intent = new intent("couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.serviceclassxml");

(b)

//intent = new intent(this, serviceclassxml.class); //gives error //intent = new intent("couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.serviceclassxml"); intent = new intent(); intent.setcomponent(new    componentname("couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml","serviceclassxml.java"));

also tried this, gives same error.

intent = new intent(context, serviceclassxml.class);

service class

public class serviceclassxml extends service { sharedpreferences prefs = null;  @override public int onstartcommand(intent intent, int flags, int startid) {     log.i("dbg", "serviceclassxml started");     prefs =   preferencemanager.getdefaultsharedpreferences(this.getapplication().getapplicationcontext());     boolean run = prefs.getboolean("running", false);     if (!run)         stopself();     else {         new getxmltask(this.getapplication().getapplicationcontext(),  true).execute("");     }     return super.onstartcommand(intent, flags, startid); } @override public ibinder onbind(intent arg0) {     // todo auto-generated method stub     return null; } }

attempt intent filter , custom action. manifest 

    <service         android:name="couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.serviceclassxml"         android:enabled="true" >         <intent-filter>         <action android:name="couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.do_custom_action"/>         </intent-filter>     </service>

activity

//intent = new intent(this, serviceclassxml.class);  //intent = new intent("couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.serviceclassxml"); //intent = new intent(); //intent.setcomponent(new  componentname("couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml","serviceclassxml.java")); //service not reached intent = new intent("couk.jit.currencycheck1.xml.do_custom_action"); intent.setclass(this, serviceclassxml.class);
