Android : Do we need to create new Intent for every startService on an IntentService?
===

As the question mentions, I am re-using the same Intent object, reloading it with different extras data, before using it in startService. Is this OK? or do I need to do a "new Intent(context, ServiceClass)" before every startService?

I am using the Service for continuous stream of processing so I am a bit concerned if I have to create a new Intent everytime I need to send the data to the Service.

The problem is that currently, the Service seems to get executed only once. All subsequent startService calls don't seem to fire the Service. What can be the reason?
