HOw to make notificationmanager to work?

Question

When i call

NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
                                (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

I get an error

The method getSystemService(String) is undefined for the type new BroadcastReceiver(){}

I'm not sure where I messed up... TIA

where are you calling this statement, in broadcastReceiver? – Coderji Feb 25 '14 at 06:34 — Coderji, Feb 25 '14 at 06:34

Use like

NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
            (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

As far as i know, calling some methods that involves Context from a BroadcastReceiver isn't safe, as explained for Context.bindService() in this answer.
