Question

I have an AsyncTask with a textview loaded in the class so it looks something like this:

private class MyClass extends AsyncTask<TextView, Void, Void>{
}
TextView tv;

Loaded this way

"new MyClass(tv).execute();"

The reason for this is because of I have a textview loaded inside a viewflipper and I have a long load method inside the task to implement a process dialog.

My error is found on “protected Void doInBackground(TextView… params) {” this is where params is a TextView[] but not a single TextView.

Does anyone have a solution of to this problem?

Answer 1

Your TextView is the first element in params:

TextView tv = params[0];

NOTE:

If you plan to modify that TextView in doInbackground() don’t do it because you’ll throw an exception(you can’t modify a view from another thread, instead use the onPostExecute method).
