android service connection... Messenger or Binder or AIDL?

Question

I am getting quite confused with different opinion from diff people and the developer sitee...

I am building an app in which i am having a service(local service) runnning... which keeps getting data updated (sockets).. i want this to get reflected in the activity each time...

which one is the most ideal way to follow ??

Answer 1

i think binder would be better, because messenger or aidl aims at cross-process communication.
