can we call startActivityForResult from adapter?

Question

is it possible to have method onActivityResume within adapter & call startActivityForResult?

Answer 1

Yes. Just pass the context of the activity to the adapter in the adapter's constructor (here stored as mContext). In getView, just call

((Activity) mContext).startActivityForResult(intent,REQUEST_FOR_ACTIVITY_CODE); 

Answer 2

Not necessarily pass to pass context in adapter's constructor. You can get context from parent ViewGroup. Sample for RecyclerView adapter:

 Context mContext;  @Override     public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {         mContext = parent.getContext();         ...     } 

Sample for ListView BaseAdapter

 Context mContext;  @Override     public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {         mContext = parent.getContext();         ... } 

And use it wherever you want

((Activity) mContext).startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_FOR_ACTIVITY_CODE);
