starting new Activities from ImageButtons

Question

I have MainMenu. There's 3 different ImageButtons for starting new Activities. Everything work fine, but I wondering is possible another way to code this. I took this from example code with one button, and I think its not look good: setting new OnClickListener() for each button.

public class MainMenu extends Activity implements OnClickListener{

ImageButton firstModule;
ImageButton secondModule;
ImageButton thirdModule;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main_menu);

    //init buttons
    firstModule =  (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton1);
    secondModule = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton2);
    thirdModule =  (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton3);

    firstModule.setOnClickListener(this);
    secondModule.setOnClickListener(this);
    thirdModule.setOnClickListener(this);
}
public void onClick(View v) {

    switch(v.getId()){
    case R.id.imageButton1:
        startActivity(new Intent(MainMenu.this, BasicFunctions.class));
        break;
    case R.id.imageButton2:
        startActivity(new Intent(MainMenu.this, GpsModule.class));
        break;
    case R.id.imageButton3:
        startActivity(new Intent(MainMenu.this, Graphic3D.class));
        break;
    }

}

}

The more elegant way is to implement View.OnClickListener inside your Activity and then process clicks inside the onClick() method of your Activity . It gives you a View object as an argument, you can retrieve the view's id using the view.getId() method, then you can use the switch block to implement actions for every Button in your layout. Hope this helps.
