Solve the error of the startActivity method of Context

The error is as follows

Java code  

1. 02-10 13:26:11.048: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(17173): Caused by: android.util.AndroidRuntimeException: Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag. Is this really what you want?  

The startActivity method of Context needs to start a new task.

If you use the startActivity method of Activity, there will be no restrictions, because Activity inherits from Context and has overloaded the startActivity method.

 

Solution:

Add a FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag as the error prompts

Java code  

1. public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {  
2.     ……  
3.     Intent startiPhone = new Intent(context, Iphone.class);  
4.     startiPhone.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);  
5.     context.startActivity(startiPhone);  
6.     ……  
7. }
