Question

In Java on Android when we code using this style

public void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstantState) {

   SearchClass = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.SearchField);
   SearchClass.addTextChangeListener(new TextWatcer() {
       getData task = new getData(this);
   }
}

When using this style of coding: How do I pass the context into the textchangelistener? (I call an asynctask with do something with ‘this’ but it requires the context to be passed properly.

In JavaScript you can do something similar to

SearchClass.AddTextChangeListener(new TextWatcher() { ..}).bind(this);

to solve the problem.

Answer 1

In your class declare

Context mContext;

Initialize it

mContext = this;

You can use it inside your private (inner) classes.
