onReceive called many times

Question

I have a service that get data from an other application.

When I get date I send message to broadCast in order to refresh the UI.

The onReceive method is called many times and data displayed multiple times.

this is my code:

DataService.java

if(sizeLat == 1) {
                                       
   sendMessage("Alerte1;");
                                    
}
else {

   sendMessage("Alerte2;");
}


 private void sendMessage(String message) {
    Log.w("","==> send message");
    Intent intent = new Intent("my-event");
    // add data
    intent.putExtra("message", message);
    LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).sendBroadcast(intent);
 }

MainActivity.java

// handler for received Intents for the "my-event" event 
    private BroadcastReceiver mMessageReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
      @Override
      public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
          
                      
      Log.e("","Onreceiver");
      String message = intent.getStringExtra("message");
    
        
        if(message.equals("Alerte1")){
      parentItems.add(message);
      adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
         }}};

@Override
  protected void onResume() {
    Log.d(TAG, "On Resume");
    super.onResume();
    
    // Register mMessageReceiver to receive messages.
    
    LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mMessageReceiver,
            new IntentFilter("my-event"));}

How can I resolve the problem ?

Answer 1

Put broadcast register line in onCreate and unregister it in onDestroy() method. The line which you have to move from onResume() to onCreate is:-

LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mMessageReceiver,
            new IntentFilter("my-event"));}
