How to use intent in non activity class

Question

I have some little problem with android. Just wanted to know how to call intents from an Adapter Class which just extends BaseAdapter and not Activity Class.

Answer 1

To start an activity you need context. Try with the following approach

pass the context parameter to the constructor of the class which extends BaseAdapter.

Example

public class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
Context context;
public MyAdapter(Context context) {
    this.context=context;
    }

To start an activity use the following approach

Intent i = new Intent();
        i.setClassName("com.abc.mypackage", "com.abc.mypackage.NewActivity");
        context.startActivity(i);

or

Intent i = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
context.startActivity(i);
