Question

I am writing an Android app where I am trying to run the Facebook.authorize function. This function takes the following arguments:

Facebook.authorize(Activity, DialogListener());

Now, when I make this call in a static function, I tried passing a “Context” variable in the call like this:

public static void dummyFunction(Context context)
{
    Facebook.authorize(context, new DialogListener(){});
}

And I make the call like so:

dummyfunction(this);

When I do all of that, I get the error:

The function Facebook.authorize(Context, DialogListener) is not applicable for the arguments Facebook.authorize(Activity, Dialoglistener).

Please tell me how I can pass a static “Activity” variable in this case.

Answer 1

Have you tried

public static void dummyFunction(Activity activity)
{
    Facebook.authorize(activity, new DialogListener(){});
}

and calling it

dummy(this);

?
