2,050 PointsI don`t know where is my mistake
I try to write the code, but get an error message - The first parameter for the Intent constructor must be the current context (you can use 'LaunchActivity.this')
What is wrong with my code?
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class LaunchActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public Button launchButton;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_launch);
launchButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.launchButton);
launchButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Add your code in here!
Intent intent = new Intent(this, LaunchActivity.class);
}
});
}
}

Treehouse TeacherHey Olha!
In your Intent 'this' is referring to the OnClickListener. To make it refer to the Activity, use LaunchActivity.this.
Intent intent = new Intent(LaunchActivity.this, LaunchActivity.class);
Also, the challenge wants you to start FlightActivity not LaunchActivity. So the second parameter should be FlightActivity.class :)
Intent intent = new Intent(LaunchActivity.this, FlightActivity.class);
Hope that helps!
