get SharedPreferences value in a non activity file in android?

Question

I have a class with all common functions and there i want to get some of sharedpreferences value. below code getSharedPreference() is giving error.

Here's my code:

public class CommonFunctions {

Context mContext;
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences;

    public CommonFunctions(Context context) {
       this.mContext = context;
       sharedPreferences = getSharedPreference("MyPREFERENCES", MODE_PRIVATE);
    }

}

Is there any way to get value in java class?

you have to use context.getSharedPreference("MyPREFERENCES", context.MODE_PRIVATE); — Bharat, Aug 04 '17 at 06:14
You can't directly use context related functions outside of activity — Bharat, Aug 04 '17 at 06:15
