title: Is it possible to extend a service that has extended an Intent Service in android?
body: <p>I'm developing an app in which I use several different services. These services frequently contain the same methods. In some cases I can put these methods in another class, but in other cases they are dependent upon methods that can only be run in classes extending an activity or service.</p>
  
  <p>Essentially, I want to minimize the amount of code (and therefore work and possible complications) by creating a base service containing several of these methods and then extending it in all other services.</p>
  
  <p>I can't find much info online. Is this possible? If so, how do I go about it? I had a crack but it throws up an activity not found exceptions. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
