should you create new Async Tasks for every different call or use the same one

Solution
Short answer is yes you should create a new AsncTask for each call.
And if you interested, the long answer is;
According to the Android's Asynctask documentation,
- The goal of the AsyncTask is to take care of thread management for you and you should not worry about the threading mechanisms.
- The Android Platform handles the pool of threads to manage the asynchronous operations. AsyncTasks are like consumables. The task can be executed only once (an exception will be thrown if a second execution is attempted.)
Happy asynchronous coding! :-)
Problem
So I have an app that will make multipe HTTP Post/Gets E.G. Login, getThisData, getThatData, sendThis, sendThat Is it better to have a seperate AsyncTask to handle each one Or one async task and process them differently with a switch in `onPostExecute` and `doInBackground` Cheers
