Android download list of files with callback

Issue

I've got an Activity from which i need to download and save list of files. Files and names are stored in Map <String,String>. After downloading all files I need to call function in my Activity.

I've already have AsyncTask class which downloads and saves files and an interface which callbacks to Activity. How can i pass Map<String,String> to Asynctask or maybe there is another solutions?

Thanks.

Solution

This is not something that is suitable for an AsyncTask. You should look into implementing a custom Service, probably an IntentService.

There's a very good tutorial at http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/AndroidServices/article.html
