Why my Click is ignored ? Please Help !!

Hello, I don't understand why my click is ignored when i tapped on a item ! Please HELP ! Here my code :

public class MenuAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MenuAdapter.MenuViewHolder> {

private Context mContext;
private MenuImages[] mMenuImages;

public MenuAdapter(Context context, MenuImages[] menuImages){
    mContext = context;
    mMenuImages = menuImages;
}

@Override
public MenuViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
            .inflate(R.layout.menu_list_item, parent, false);
    MenuViewHolder viewHolder = new MenuViewHolder(view);

    return viewHolder;
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(MenuViewHolder holder, int position) {
    holder.bindMenu(mMenuImages[position]);
}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    return mMenuImages.length;
}


public class MenuViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder
        implements View.OnClickListener{

    public ImageView mImageView;
    public TextView mTextView;

    public MenuViewHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);

        mImageView = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.itemImageView);
        mTextView = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.textView2);

        itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

    public void bindMenu(MenuImages menuImage){
        mImageView.setImageBitmap(menuImage.getImageMenu());
        mTextView.setText(menuImage.getTitreImageMenu());
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext, Main2Activity.class);
        v.getContext.startActivity(intent);
        Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), getLayoutPosition(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
}

   @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext, Main2Activity.class);
        v.getContext.startActivity(intent);
        Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), getLayoutPosition(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }

First you forgot the parentheses on getContext() twice, but that should have caused an error. Second is a bit more subtle, but it has to do with the fact that all resource ID's like R.id, R.string, etc. are ints. Because R.string.whatever is of type int methods in Android that take text almost always have two signatures, one that takes a String (or CharSequence) and one that takes in int in it's place. getLayoutPosition() returns an int, so the compiler assumes you want the resource ID version of makeText. If you want to make a Toast of the list position try converting the int to a string first:

Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), getLayoutPosition() + "", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

Thank you for taking the time to answering me. About the getContext it's an error of copying pasting, and i found the error, it was about my xml file and also what you said about int and String. Thank's again though.
