StartActivityForResult is a method of Activity, not Context. You can typecast if appropriate.
If not (i.e. your Context is a service or a receiver), then it doesn't make sense - because the result callback used by startActivityForResult is also a method of Activity. If this case, use a broadcast, a pending intent, or a handler message (just some of the options) to send/receive the result. Oh, and I see that the intent you're trying to start is for a service. Using startActivity (for result or not) with a service intent just doesn't make sense. 20.05.2011 1:41 пользователь "kypriakos" <demet...@ece.neu.edu> написал: > > That's what I said too - huh? ;) > > Intent intent = new Intent(); > intent.setClass(androidContext, > mysnapPic2ServiceImpl.class); > intent.setFlags(intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); > intent.putExtra("from", "1"); > final int result=1; > // androidContext.startActivity(intent); > androidContext.startActivityForResult(intent, result); > > The startActivity method (commented out) is found fine when used - the > one below it gives: > > [ERROR] snapPic2Servlet.java:[89,22] cannot find symbol > symbol : method startActivityForResult(android.content.Intent,int) > location: class android.content.Context > > It has to be something stupid I can't see right now ... > > On May 19, 2:12 pm, Kostya Vasilyev <kmans...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Huh? >> >> http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Activity.html#star..., >> int) >> >> Since API level 1 - i.e. Android 1.0. >> >> Perhaps you could post a code snippet showing the compile error. >> >> -- Kostya >> >> 19.05.2011 22:04, kypriakos пишет: >> >> > So the API level 4 (to which cupcake/1.6 is based on) does not have >> > the startActivityForResult - >> > which is in line with the fact that the compilation fails. >> >> -- >> Kostya Vasilyev --http://kmansoft.wordpress.com > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Android Developers" group. > To post to this group, send email to android-developers@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > android-developers+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers?hl=en -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
