Android: call a method from an AsyncTask

Question

I want to call a method called getHoroscope() from an AsyncTask, from another class, I'm trying this

String sentence, signo="geminis"; sentence = new ExtendedActivity.Parse().getHoroscope("daily",signo);

But I get error "ExtendedActivity is not an enclosing class". Can you help me?

My ExtendedActivity:

public class ExtendedActivity extends BaseActivity { (...) public class Parse extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> { private final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(ExtendedActivity.this); @Override public String doInBackground(String... params) { String option, type, dat, site="", description="", s="";; //get the user option Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras(); option = extras.getString("OPTION"); type = extras.getString("TYPE"); description = getHoroscope(type, option); return description; } public String getHoroscope(String type, String option){ String description="", site; (...) } }

You are creating an object of ExtendedActivity and trying to access statically a method from Parse () class. Either, declare Parse and getHoroscope static or create an object of Parse — E. Fernandes

You cand o it:

new ExtendedActivity().new Parse().getHoroscope();

or:

public class ExtendedActivity { public static class Parse extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> { @Override public String doInBackground(String... params) { String description = ""; description = getHoroscope(); return description; } public static String getHoroscope() { return null; } } }

and call it like that: new ExtendedActivity.Parse().getHoroscope();
