30 /**
31  * <p>
32  * This class implements a service. The service is started by AlarmActivity, which contains a
33  * repeating countdown timer that sends a PendingIntent. The user starts and stops the timer with
34  * buttons in the UI.
35  * </p>
36  * <p>
37  * When this service is started, it creates a Runnable and starts it in a new Thread. The
38  * Runnable does a synchronized lock on the service's Binder object for 15 seconds, then issues
39  * a stopSelf(). The net effect is a new worker thread that takes 15 seconds to run and then
40  * shuts down the entire service. The activity restarts the service after 15 more seconds, when the
41  * countdown timer triggers again.
42  * </p>
43  * <p>
44  * This service is provided as the service under test for the sample test application
45  * AlarmServiceTest.
46  * </p>
47  * <p>
48  * Note: Since this sample is based on the Android 1.5 platform, it does not implement
49  * onStartCommand. See the Javadoc for android.app.Service for more details.
