Using Context class constructor inside non-context class

Static Way to get Context on android?

Not sure if the answer is correct, but this thing is stopping me from progress for days already.

I got two classes:

• public class CfmDbAdapter which consist:
  • private static class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper
  • series of methods to service the database
• public class DataToArray extends Application

I extended Application just to have access to Context but I have to access methods from CfmDbadapter. In all my Activity classes I do it by:

private CfmDbAdapter db;    
db = new CfmDbAdapter(this);
db.open(); //one of the methods I need to access

I can't do that in my DataToArray class since it's parent is not a Context class (I gues). I can't acess methods staticly aswell, it would fck up whole code.

Answer 1

You can make the db: a) final b) belonging to the class Or you can declare some other variable, (static or final) and put a reference to db in it.
