Barcode scanner not working in service

Hi,

I want to use Barcode scanner in Service, but scanner not receiving code. Please check this.

public class BarcodeService extends Service {
    private BarcodeScanner mBarcodeScanner;
    private BroadcastReceiver barcodeReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            BarcodeResult barcodeResult = new BarcodeResult(intent);

            if (barcodeResult.isBarcodeAction()) {
                String barcode = barcodeResult.getBarcode();

            }
        }
    };
    @Nullable
    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        return null;
    }
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        mBarcodeScanner = new BarcodeScanner(this);
        registerBarcodeScanner();
        Bundle extras = new Bundle();
        extras.putBoolean(Intents.EXTRA_LED_ON, true);
        extras.putBoolean(Intents.EXTRA_SCAN_QR_CODE, false);
        extras.putBoolean(Intents.EXTRA_SCAN_1D_CODE, true);
        extras.putBoolean(Intents.EXTRA_SHOW_PREVIEW, false);
        extras.putInt(Intents.EXTRA_SCANNER_FACING, BarcodeScanner.BARCODE_SCANNER_FACING_CUSTOMER);
        mBarcodeScanner.executeStartScan(extras);
    }
    @Override
    public void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();
        unregisterBarcodeScanner();
    }
    private void registerBarcodeScanner() {
        registerReceiver(barcodeReceiver, new IntentFilter(BarcodeResult.INTENT_ACTION));
    }
    private void unregisterBarcodeScanner() {

        unregisterReceiver(barcodeReceiver);
    }
}


Thank you.

It isn't clear to me why you need this in a service. You seem to be making some assumptions above services in Android that aren't correct. You may want to perform some searches on the internet for using Android services in general (when to use them, limitations, etc.).

We have to perform scanning operation in Register app that is the reason we are using service.
