Call Notification from BroadcastReceiver

Question

I have the code :

public void AlarmStart() {
    Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
    cal.add(Calendar.MINUTE, 5);
    Intent intent = new Intent(MainN         


        

Answer 1

I think that you don't need any reference to an Activity in the NotifierHelper. Use the Context (which Activity is a subclass of), eg:

public static void sendNotification(Context caller, ...

Such methods as getSystemService(), etc.. are actually exposed by Context.

And since you get passed a Context in AlarmReceiver.onReceive(), you can pass it on.
