Problem Statement:

Printing Hello World text using activity,service and broadcast receiver.

This program demonstrates how to call any activity from service and service from broadcast receiver. The application starts from broadcast receiver then control goes to service and service call activity to print “Hello World”.

Several ways To create an application:

• LocalBroadcastManager:This can be used ,If you want to send broadcasts to your application.
• BroadcastReceiver:This can be used,If you want to send broadcasts across applications.

About Code:

I have created 3 java classes namely broadcast,MyService,MyActivity.

• broadcast.java :This class inherits BroadcastReceiver class and contains method onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) to create an intent and to call startService() method.
• MyService.java:This class inherits Service class and contains method onBind(Intent intent) to create intent and to call startActivity().
• MainActivity.java:This class inherits Activity class and contains method onCreate() to create an application.
