Firstly, I am new to both android and Java.
I have two classes, my main.class and Note.class.
I am calling the notification method from my Note.class in my main.class when i press a button.
The issue is with this line from the Note.class :
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, contentTitle, contentText, contentIntent);
When the method is called it force closes. I believe the problem to be with the "this" in PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);, but I am unsure what to change it to.
The notification code works fine if it's in the main class.
I would be very grateful for any guidance.
Edit: Main class : http://pastebin.com/05Yx0a48
Note.class :
package com.adamblanchard.remindme.com.adamblanchard;
import com.adamblanchard.remindme.R;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.Notification;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Note extends Activity {
public CharSequence note = "not changed";
int HELLO_ID = 1;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
setTitle("Remind Me!");
}
//Notification Method
public void callNotification() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String ns = Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE;
final NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(ns);
int icon = R.drawable.launcher;
CharSequence tickerText = "Remind Me!";
long when = System.currentTimeMillis();
final Notification notification = new Notification(icon, tickerText, when);
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
final Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence contentTitle = "Remind Me!";
CharSequence contentText = note;
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(context, AndroidNotifications.class);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, contentTitle, contentText, contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.notify(HELLO_ID, notification);
HELLO_ID++;
}
}
Debug Output :
Thread [<1> main] (Suspended (exception IllegalStateException))
Note(Activity).getSystemService(String) line: 3536
Note.callNotification() line: 37
remindme$1$1.onClick(DialogInterface, int) line: 72 AlertDialog(AlertController$ButtonHandler).handleMessage(Message) line: 159 AlertController$ButtonHandler(Handler).dispatchMessage(Message) line: 99

This is the debug output I get, plus a force close popup on the device.
