android, how to get package name?

Question

In my application I need to know the name of package name. I have no problem when I want to grab it in activities but i can\'t take it in other classes. Following code is workin

Answer 1

getApplicationContext() is a method of ContextWrapper ( super class of Activity).

If you want to use it in your classes you will have to pass a reference of a Context or its subclass and then use it

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/ContextWrapper.html#getPackageName()

class MyClass {
    Context mContext;

    public MyClass(Context ctx) [
        this.mContext = ctx;

    }

    String getPackageName() {
        mContext.getPackageName();
    }

}
