Unable to startActivity from Recycler View Adapter

I want to open same activity on every item click of recycler view,but the way i am doing it,i am getting NULL POINTER on this line-con.startActivity(intent); Please help me with this. ##

Answer 1

You can use the context from the View you clicked on.

Intent intent = new Intent (v.getContext(), StartActivity.class);
v.getContext().startActivity(intent);

Or assign the context in your constructor

this.con = con;
