Question

Here is the sample code:

Class SomeClass extends Activity {
    public void someMethod() {
        Runnable r = new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                Intent service = new Intent(SomeClass.this, SomeOtherClass.class);
                // ...
            }
        }
    }
}

How can I change the code to not use SomeClass ( in new Intent(SomeClass.this, ...))?
I want to place this sample in multiple classes and I do not want each time use different class name.

Answer 1

Shorter method (suggested):

Replacing SomeClass.this in your Intent with getApplicationContext() should do the trick.

Method I use (a little more drawn out and probably not the best of the two):

In each class, make a private Context mContext;
Then, in the onCreate() of each class, make mContext = this;
Finally, replace SomeClass.this in your Intent with mContext.
