Using AsyncTask to start activity
android, android-asynctask
Solution
Yes, you can start activity from AsyncTask's sub class. See below:
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) {
Toast.makeText(activity, Boolean.toString(result), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
activity.startActivity(new Intent(activity, BuiltInCamera.class));
}
After making this change, make sure you do remove startActivity from `OnClickListener`
Problem
I am using asyncTask to show Dialog and then after few minutes then launch a new activity. unfortunately that activity start before task finished ??? ``` package com.android.grad; import android.app.Activity; import android.app.ProgressDialog; import android.os.AsyncTask; import android.widget.Toast; public class LoginTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Boolean> { private Activity activity; private ProgressDialog pd; public LoginTask(Activity activity) { this.activity = activity; } @Override protected void onPreExecute() { pd = ProgressDialog.show(activity, "Signing in", "Please wait while we are signing you in.."); } @Override protected Boolean doInBackground(Void... arg0) { try { Thread.sleep(10000000); } catch (InterruptedException e) { } pd.dismiss(); return true; } @Override protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) { Toast.makeText(activity, Boolean.toString(result), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } ``` } and i execute the task from button click listener :S ``` private OnClickListener loginOnClick = new OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { new LoginTask(LoginActivity.this).execute(); startActivity(new Intent(LoginActivity.this, BuiltInCamera.class)); } }; ``` Is there way to startActivity from my subClass ofAsyncTask .
