How to check webservice is finish perform?

Question

I have a webservice that download about 100 lines data and store into local database.

Then, from database sqlite , it will allocate into difference list.

I want to get the response from web service when the data is downloading from server to database, either is in progress or finished and should return the status.

I need the status to do some action.

Answer 1

Use AsyncTask for downloading information from web-services to application that will take care about the response (ie progress ) here the document : AsyncTask

Answer 2

Design it in such a way that an Intent will be broadcast upon completion. This is the cleanest way to do it, and broadcast it exclusively to your app.
