how to use runOnUiThread without getting “cannot make a static reference to the non static method” compiler error

Question

I have a main class;

  ClientPlayer extends Activity {

and a service

  LotteryServer extends Service implements Runnable {
         


        

Answer 1

There is a very simple solution to the above problem just make a static reference of your Activity before your onCreat() method

MainActivity mn;

then initialize it in you onCreat() method like this

mn=MainActivity.this;

and after that you just have to use it to call your runOnUiThread

mn.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {
                        tv.setText(fns);///do what
                                    }
                                });

hope it work.
