android.view.ContextThemeWrapper cannot be cast to android.app.Activity

Question

I'm not a designer but when i got this project i can`t open specifically some screens, i think that they are screens and we only reuse some of the layouts have been created. Anyway can somebody help me? @Override public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull final ProductsAdapter.ViewHolder holder, final int position) { String imageUrl = ProductsList.get(position).getImage();

    holder.itemName.setText(ProductsList.get(position).getName());
    Picasso.with(context).load(imageUrl).into(holder.itemImage);

    holder.parentLayot.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public String currentActivity;

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Activity activity = (Activity) v.getContext();
            activity.runOnUiThread(bd);
            String activityName = activity.getClass().getSimpleName();
            // Toast.makeText(activity,ProductsList.get(position).getId(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            if (activityName.equals("Product_View")){
                // Toast.makeText(activity,"Click and pass",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            }

        }
    });
} 

and the logcat shows this

Answer 1

This line is probably the culprit:

Activity activity = (Activity) v.getContext();

The view v passed to the onClick() method is the same view that you assigned the listener to, so v is the same as holder.parentLayot. I don't know exactly where holder.parentLayot came from, but chances are very good that (in XML) this view (or one of its parents) has an android:theme attribute.

When a view has the android:theme attribute, it doesn't use its activity's context directly. Instead, the android framework will "wrap" the activity's context in a ContextThemeWrapper in order to modify the view's theme.

To access the activity from this wrapper, you'll have to "unwrap" it. Try something like this:

private static Activity unwrap(Context context) {
    while (!(context instanceof Activity) && context instanceof ContextWrapper) {
        context = ((ContextWrapper) context).getBaseContext();
    }

    return (Activity) context;
}

Then, you can use this method in your onClick() instead of casting the context directly:

Activity activity = unwrap(v.getContext());

Answer 2

Recursive solution in Kotlin:

fun Context.getActivity(): Activity? {
    return when (this) {
        is Activity -> this
        is ContextWrapper -> this.baseContext.getActivity()
        else -> null
    }
}

Checked with case of using View.getContext().
