Because it's an abstract method in 'Context' and must be implemented in any non-abstract derived type. > I really don't feel like it clearly belongs in any class. No one is concerned with your feelings. In Java, *every* method and variable belongs to a type, or is local to a method or initializer within a class. So your feeling violates the fundamental structure of the Java language itself. > I basically want to call the function when I don't necessarily have a handle to an Activity object yet. Okay.
