Question

I am trying to get to the application from my static class but get this error

The method getActivity() is undefined for the type PniemActivity.MyFragmentAdapter

But when i leave getActivity() out i get this message:

Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method getApplication() from the type Activity

This is my code.

private static class MyFragmentAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter{
    private final int NUM_OF_PAGES = 10;

    public MyFragmentAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
        super(fm);
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    }

    @Override
    public Fragment getItem(int index){
        return PageFragment.newInstance("Hoi "+ index );

    }

    @Override
    public int getCount(){
    appData = ((myApp) getActivity().getApplication()).slaughterData;

        return NUM_OF_PAGES;


    }


}

I want to get the amount of fragments needed from my database and that is why i want to get access to my application.

Any ideas?

Thanks

As far as I can tell getActivity() is a method on Fragment, not on FragmentPageAdapter. You could get the current Fragment from the FragmentManager (which you have a reference to), but I would probably do as Vladimir suggests in the comment:

1. Add your class that extends Application to your AndroidManifest:
2. Implement a singleton pattern (with a getInstance method) or simply add a public static reference to your Application subclass
