Title
Body
I have a map view activity that shows a few OverlayItems . In the onTap method of an overlay, I want to trigger a new activity that shows this overlay photo as a fullscreen, for example. When I do this inside my overlay class: Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClass(getApplicationContext, FullscreenView.class); startActivity(intent); .. it can't find an application context, as I am not in the scope of an activity. When I add a method to my main activity, let's say startFullscreen : public static void startFullscreen() { if (sCurrentPhoto != null) { Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setClass(getApplicationContext(), FullscreenView.class); startActivity(intent); } } I can not call getApplicationContext() and startActivity() , because I am in a static context. I need the static method however to call it in the Overlay class like MainView.startFullscreen() . Put simply: How can I start an Activity from a non-Activity class?
