hi, Thats not my doubt. My service needs to read some data using htttpget, this action is performed onStart method of the service. While service is in middle of reading data from web. If someone starts the service again. What happens to the task started first? Will the service ends the first task and starts again from onStart function or Will service run the two task in separate two threads?
