Question

I have to read a file called hello.txt using the following code on java/eclipse/android:

import java.io.InputStream;

public class Tokenirzer {
    public String ReadPath () {

        InputStream inputStream = getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.hello);
    }
}

However I get the following error:

The method getResources() is undefined for the type Tokenirzer

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

getResources() is part of Context. You can use it like that in an Activity because it inherits from Context. You need to pass in your activity’s Context to use getResources.
