Is there a way to restart a service after upgrading the application on Android?

After upgrading my applicati开发者_C百科on I would like the service to restart if it was running before. Is there any way to do this? I didn't see any Broadcast Intents that I could register for in the manifest.

You are right that you should be using a BroadcastReceiver.

Have a look at this question about restarting Alarms on upgrade; it shows how you can use the ACTION_PACKAGE_REPLACED Intent to see when an application is upgraded.
