JobServiceEngine

public abstract class JobServiceEngine
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.app.job.JobServiceEngine


Helper for implementing a Service that interacts with JobScheduler. This is not intended for use by regular applications, but allows frameworks built on top of the platform to create their own Service that interact with JobScheduler as well as add in additional functionality. If you just want to execute jobs normally, you should instead be looking at JobService.
