(un)registerReceiver not giving expected results.

Postby aellis » Sun Apr 04, 2010 10:15 am

Hi all,

I would like to register a broadcast receiver on onStart of an
activity and then unregister the receiver when the activity gets
onStop called. When I debug I see that both of these calls are made
when I expected, but for some reason, my broadcast receiver keeps
handling intents.

Can someone please enlighten me as to why the receiver is still
processing intents, even when I have called unregistered the receiver?

Best regards,

Alex
