Assuming my application uses a PendingIntent to request background location
updates from the new Google Location APIs (Google Play Services) like this :
locationclient = new LocationClient(this,this,this);
> locationclient.connect();
> Intent intentService = new Intent(this,LocationService.class);
> PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 1,
> intentService, 0);
> locationrequest = LocationRequest.create();
> locationrequest.setInterval(100);
> locationclient.requestLocationUpdates(locationrequest, pendingIntent);
And imagine a scenario where the user started the app and clicked a button
to start the background location updates, exits the app and comes back at a
later point in time.
Is it possible for my application to query the Location APIs or the Android
Intent mechanism to know if it has in fact already requested location
updates using this PendingIntent (detecting if this pending intent is
"active") ?
Or should that be part of my application state (storing the "start" action
somewhere in sharedprefs or another mechanism). But in that case, if the
user decides to clear the cache/data associated with my app, this state
would be lost, while the pending intent might still be active) ?
What would be a good way of dealing with that ?
Thanks...
