Question

In my sub class I am trying to add an image View:

ImageView image = new ImageView(this);

But it breaks the app. I think it is because of the ‘this’ param.

Does my class need to extend something? At the minute it extends Activity.

Answer 1

You can do that but you need to provide this.ApplicationContext instead of this. Alternatively you could derive a View instead of an Activity and use constructor’s Context argument for the ImageView constructor.
