Thanks, -Ray Posting the following e-mail: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ray <[email protected]> Date: Mon, Oct 18, 2010 at 1:01 PM Subject: App design question for multiple "data" connections To: Android Developers <[email protected]> Hello, I am working on developing an application that requires me to establish multiple client-server based connections. Connection can be of two types where the Android device can be a server or a client. I can have up to 6 - 8 connections. Once the connections are set-up they need to be running in the background and are not typically affected by UI actions. Since each connection can be blocking, I am wondering what is a good way to design this app. Should I have two services for handling the server and client connections? Each service could have a "connection manager" that can spawn new threads when necessary. Or does creating two services even help? I presume spawning new processes would not be good as they will be expensive. I would appreciate any suggestions. Also, if this use case is not typical please let me know if you need more information to make any recommendation.
