Error calling getResources().openRawResource()

Question

I have to read a file called hello.txt using the following code on java/eclipse/android:

import java.io.InputStream;

public class Tokenirzer {
    public String ReadPath () {

        InputStream inputStream = getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.hello);
    }
}

However I get the following error:

The method getResources() is undefined for the type Tokenirzer

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

getResources() is part of Context . You can use it like that in an Activity because it inherits from Context . You need to pass in your activity's Context to use getResources .

Answer 2

您的类Tokenirzr不包含方法getResources() 。

Answer 3

I see this question is old, but I faced similar situation and as per my experience there are 2 solutions. Either the class has to extend Activity() or a reference should be passed from MainActivity()
