problem with RecyclerView

Hello everybody,

I try to do recyclerView, but I get some error in android studio. I hope if somone can help me about that, my code is:

@Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_list, container, false);
    RecyclerView recyclerView = view.findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
    NewsListAdapter adapter = new NewsListAdapter(this, mNews);
    recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
    RecyclerView.LayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity());
    recyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);
    recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);

and I get error on Line: (this, mNews) , but if I do ALT+ENTER the anroid studio tell me if I want to Create constructor or to change one parameter of method 'NewsListAdapter ' in from Context.. I try to do the two options but Nothing worked out..

Thanks for help :)

Since you are using onCreateView() you using a Fragment, yes? Fragments don't inherit from Context, so this of a Fragment can't be substituted for one. Activities do, and you would use getActivity() or getContext() when you need to pass the Context to a method from a Fragment.
