I can't get the Toast and the startActivity to work in the VLC.java class. Both statements work if they are put in the TerminalFragment.java class.
Android Studio reports no problems but when I run the app it crashes.
I've tried about every possible getActivity, startActivity and Context permutation but nothing works. How can I get this to work?
TerminalFragment.java
receiveText.append(toCaretString(msg, newline.length() != 0));
Task(msg);
// If I put the Intent and startActivity(play) here it works fine
}
}
public void Task(String tsk) {
// String id = tsk.substring(0, 2);
String id = "01";
String[] smallString = StringUtils.substringsBetween(tsk, ";", ";");
switch (id)
{
// VLC
case "01":
VLC myObj = new VLC();
myObj.RadioStream(smallString);
break;
case "02":
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), id, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
default:
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "default", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
}
}
VLC.java
package com.android_usb_gateway;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class VLC extends MainActivity {
public void RadioStream(String[] args) {
// Can not get the Toast to work
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "hello", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// Get the name and url
String url = args[2];
String name = args[3];
String AUDIO_WILD = args[4];
String TITLE = args[5];
// The intent and startActivity(play) work fine if they are in TerminalFrament.java
Intent play = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri uri = Uri.parse(url);
play.setPackage(MainActivity.app);
play.setDataAndType(uri, AUDIO_WILD);
play.putExtra(TITLE, name);
// Can not get this to work
startActivity(play);
}
}
I managed to get it working as follows:
TerminalFragment.java
VlcObject obj = new VlcObject(this);
obj.RadioStream(smallString);
VlcObject.java
public class VlcObject {
TerminalFragment c;
public VlcObject(TerminalFragment c) {
this.c = c;
}
public void RadioStream(String[] args) {
Intent play = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
c.startActivity(play);
}
}
