From dc2f8e8337a4d0fd0258dac57ba2bbcc1457f7f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kweku Adams Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2021 11:27:01 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Improve content URI documentation. Make it clear when JobScheduler.schedule() should be called by an app that wants a content URI to be continuously monitored.

Scheduling the new job + * before or during processing will cause the current job to be stopped (as described in + * {@link JobScheduler#schedule(JobInfo)}), meaning the wakelock will be released for the + * current job and your app process may be killed since it will no longer be in a valid + * component lifecycle. + * Since {@link JobScheduler#schedule(JobInfo)} stops the current job, you do not + * need to call {@link JobService#jobFinished(JobParameters, boolean)} if you call + * {@link JobScheduler#schedule(JobInfo)} using the same job ID as the + * currently running job.
