I know that an activity can communicate with a local service using the IBinder interface; I am trying to find a way for communication between two services.
Specifically, I have my main service starting an IntentService to handle file uploads. I want this IntentService to inform back to the main service once it is done uploading, and before it dies.
Any ideas about how this would happen?
