I am following sample code for sending an update notification every 10'seconds. The code follows and it is in an UpdateService for an AppWidgetProvider. If I put a Thread.sleep(10*1000); I can see the expected behavior of my servicing loop. I obviously have something fundamentally wrong that is triggering immediately. It is supposed to be a PendingIntent of an alarm that will broadcast update to my listener.
long nextUpdate = 10*1000;
Log.d(TAG, "Requesting next update in " + nextUpdate + " msec." );
Intent updateIntent = new Intent(ACTION_UPDATE_ALL);
updateIntent.setClass(this, UpdateService.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 0, updateIntent, 0);
// Schedule alarm, and force the device awake for this update
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)getBaseContext().getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME, SystemClock.elapsedRealtime(),
nextUpdate, pendingIntent);
