Question

If I want to send an event, e.g. OnClick, to an activity from a thread? Thanks.

The expected work flow is below:

public class HelloAndroid extends Activity {

   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       setContentView(R.layout.main);
       Crate threadA
       Start threadA
   }

   public void OnSomeEvent() {
       do something that changes the views in this activity;
   }

   private class ThreadA extends Thread {
       public void run() {
           do something ...

           Send Some Event to Activity HelloAndroid.
       }
   }

You will have to use Handlers to update UI.
