How can I get to getLoaderManager().restartLoader(0, null, this) get the correct this?

Question

I'm trying to implement a searchview in the actionBar in my listfragment when I retrieve my contacts.

My problem comes when i try to use

getLoaderManager().restartLoader(0, null, this); 

in onQueryTextChange method:

I'm getting in 'this', next error:

Found: 'android.support.v7.widget.SearchView.OnQueryTextListener', required: 'android.support.v4.app.LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks<java.lang.Object>

That I don't understand is why in onActivityCreated method I can use same code and work:

  getLoaderManager().initLoader(0, null, this);

Thanks in advance!

This is all my code:

Answer 1

use contacts.this

And btw, make your class name with upper case. So it should be Contacts.this
