Question

I am having some trouble with my toast context for my submit button. I’ve tried setApplicationContext() and MyActivity.this but neither works… and I can’t quite work it out. Anyone have any ideas?

The bit I’m having trouble with is:

Toast.makeText(CustomItemizedOverlay.this, "clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

EDIT
Turns out the problem wasn’t just the context, the solution “context” works fine if a public context variable is stated in the class. It was in fact the some other part of the code that caused it to crash.

Answer 1

Try changing

Toast.makeText(CustomItemizedOverlay.this, allanswers[whichButton], Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

to

Toast.makeText(context, allanswers[whichButton], Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Assuming you’ve used the constructor that sets the context parameter.
