android 中涉及到服务器中数据变化信息通知用户一般有两种 办法，推送和轮询，消息推送是服务端主动发消息给客户端，因为第一时间知道数据变化是服务器自己，所以推送的优势是实时性高，但服务器主动推送需要开发一套能让客户端持久链接的服务器
现在已经有很多开源的代码实现了基于XMMP 协议的推送方案，而且还可以使用谷歌的推送方案，但有些情况并不需要服务端主动推送二是在一定的时间间隔客户端发起查询
private MyThread myThread;
private NotificationManager manager;
private Notification notification;
private PendingIntent pi;
private AsyncHttpClient client;
private boolean flag = true;
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
System.out.println("oncreate()");
this.client = new AsyncHttpClient();
this.myThread = new MyThread();
this.myThread.start();
super.onCreate();
}
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
this.flag = false;
super.onDestroy();
}
private void notification(String content, String number, String date) {
// 获取系统的通知管理器
manager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
notification = new Notification(R.drawable.ic_menu_compose, content,
System.currentTimeMillis());
notification.defaults = Notification.DEFAULT_ALL; // 使用默认设置，比如铃声、震动、闪灯
notification.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL; // 但用户点击消息后，消息自动在通知栏自动消失
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR;// 点击通知栏的删除，消息不会依然不会被删除
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
ContentActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("content", content);
intent.putExtra("number", number);
intent.putExtra("date", date);
pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(getApplicationContext(), 0, intent, 0);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(getApplicationContext(), number
+ "发来短信", content, pi);
// 将消息推送到状态栏
manager.notify(0, notification);
}
private class MyThread extends Thread {
@Override
public void run() {
String url = "你请求的网络地址";
while (flag) {
System.out.println("发送请求");
try {
// 每个10秒向服务器发送一次请求
Thread.sleep(10000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// 采用get方式向服务器发送请求
client.get(url, new AsyncHttpResponseHandler() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(int statusCode, Header[] headers,
byte[] responseBody) {
try {
JSONObject result = new JSONObject(new String(
responseBody, "utf-8"));
int state = result.getInt("state");
// 假设偶数为未读消息
if (state % 2 == 0) {
String content = result.getString("content");
String date = result.getString("date");
String number = result.getString("number");
notification(content, number, date);
}

e.printStackTrace();

虽然alarm的意思是闹钟，而且在原生android自带的闹钟应用中AlarmManager也确实非常重要，但并不代表AlarmManager只是用来做闹钟应用的，作为一个一种系统级别的提示服务，肯定应该有着非常重要的地位，实际上android中很多东西都可以利用AlarmManager来实现。
AlarmManager在特定的时刻为我们广播一个指定的Intent。简单的说就是我们设定一个时间，然后在该时间到来时，AlarmManager为我们广播一个我们设定的Intent。这个intent可以指向一个activity，也可以指向一个service。
下面就是使用alarm定时调用service实现轮询的实现方法：
一、新建轮询工具类PollingUtils.java
public class PollingUtils {
//开启轮询服务
public static void startPollingService(Context context, int seconds, Class<?> cls,String action) {
//获取AlarmManager系统服务
AlarmManager manager = (AlarmManager) context
.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
//包装需要执行Service的Intent
Intent intent = new Intent(context, cls);
intent.setAction(action);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0,
intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
//触发服务的起始时间
long triggerAtTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
//使用AlarmManger的setRepeating方法设置定期执行的时间间隔（seconds秒）和需要执行的Service
manager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME, triggerAtTime,
seconds * 1000, pendingIntent);
}
//停止轮询服务
public static void stopPollingService(Context context, Class<?> cls,String action) {
AlarmManager manager = (AlarmManager) context
.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent intent = new Intent(context, cls);
intent.setAction(action);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0,
intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
//取消正在执行的服务
manager.cancel(pendingIntent);
}
}
二、构建轮询任务执行PollingService.java
public class PollingService extends Service {
public static final String ACTION = "com.ryantang.service.PollingService";
private Notification mNotification;
private NotificationManager mManager;
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
initNotifiManager();
}
@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
new PollingThread().start();
}
//初始化通知栏配置
private void initNotifiManager() {
mManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
int icon = R.drawable.ic_launcher;
mNotification = new Notification();
mNotification.icon = icon;
mNotification.tickerText = "New Message";
mNotification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
mNotification.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
}
//弹出Notification
private void showNotification() {
mNotification.when = System.currentTimeMillis();
//Navigator to the new activity when click the notification title
Intent i = new Intent(this, MessageActivity.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, i,
Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
mNotification.setLatestEventInfo(this,
getResources().getString(R.string.app_name), "You have new message!", pendingIntent);
mManager.notify(0, mNotification);
}
/**
* Polling thread
* 模拟向Server轮询的异步线程
* @Author Ryan
* @Create 2013-7-13 上午10:18:34
*/
int count = 0;
class PollingThread extends Thread {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println("Polling...");
count ++;
//当计数能被5整除时弹出通知
if (count % 5 == 0) {
showNotification();
System.out.println("New message!");
}
}
}
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
System.out.println("Service:onDestroy");
}
}
