Non-static method cannot be reference from a static context

Question

I realise that this is a duplicate of other previous threads on this issue, However I have read them and I cannot for the life of me work out how to deal with the issue of 'Non-static method 'getItemAtPosition' cannot be referenced from a static context.'

Here is my code:

 public class Favourites extends Insulter {

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.favourites);

    ArrayList<String> favs = getIntent().getStringArrayListExtra("favs");
    ListAdapter theAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, favs);
    ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.favsList);
    listView.setAdapter(theAdapter);

    listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
            String copyFav = String.copyValueOf(AdapterView.getItemAtPosition(position));
            myClip = ClipData.newPlainText("copyFav", copyFav);
            myClipboard.setPrimaryClip(myClip);
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), R.string.copied, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        }
    });
}

}

Answer 1

Use parent object of AdapterView which is first parameter in onItemClick method to call getItemAtPosition method :

String copyFav = String.copyValueOf(parent.getItemAtPosition(position)
                                         .toString(). toCharArray());

Problem is occurring because getItemAtPosition is not static method and you to use valid object to call it.
