如何将类作为参数传递给静态方法

Question

i am creating a control class to know if a service is running or not as shown in the following code

public class CServiceCtrl {
private final static String TAG = ActMain.class.getSimpleName();

public static boolean isRunning(Activity act, Class servClass) {
    ActivityManager manager = (ActivityManager) act.getSystemService(act.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
    for (ActivityManager.RunningServiceInfo service : manager.getRunningServices(Integer.MAX_VALUE)) {
        if (servClass.class.getName().equals(service.service.getClassName())) {//highlighted with red "unknown class servClass"
            return true;
        }
    }

    return false;
    }
}

and in onCreate of the main activity I call the follwoing code where ServSimulator is the name of the service:

CServiceCtrl.isRunning(this, ServSimulator.class);

but the code cant be compiled because the servClass in the if-statement above is underscored in red and the error says "unknown class servClass". how to solve this error

Answer 1

servClass is already a Class object. Don't use servClass.class in the if statement; just servClass by itself.

if (servClass.getName().equals(service.service.getClassName()))
