How can I access a member variable of the current running Activity in Android?

Question

I have an Android activity running with a custom view in it. When something happens within that custom view, I want to tell the currently running activity by changing one of the Activity member variables. Is there a way to access the current running activity member variables from within a custom view class besides passing the activity into the view class though a function arg?

Thanks

Answer 1

In your case, getContext() in a View will return the Activity that created the View.
