In the onClick(View view) click listener within a RecyclerView.ViewHolder the context is retrieved with view.getContext(), as in:

```

public class MyHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements 
View.OnClickListener {

    public MyHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);
        //...
        itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
        Toast.makeText(view.getContext(), "the message", 
            Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

```
