[android-developers] AIDL service connection, how to detect if service is never connected?

I have an activity that binds to an AIDL service. 

The way the AIDL service is constructed, sometimes a IBinder is never returned..

When that happens onServiceConnected is not called.  Seems obvious.

But is there a way to detect that has happened?   Is there another callback I am missing?

Or is it better to always return a IBinder and give the user a method to determine if things on the service end are messed up.

Otherwise the activity sits their happily for something that never arrives.

Thank you.
