*> I know that the keyword "this" refers to an instance variable or can invoke a constructor* That is not what the keyword "this" references. It references the instance of the class you are currently in...
*> but I don't understand how passing "this" as the arg for setOnClickListener () works?Could someone explain?* Take a look at the argument list for setOnClickListener... One of the arguments is probably a View. So, when you are calling setOnClickListener and you are in a class that inherits View, you pass "this" because "this" is-a View instance. It wouldn't work if you were calling setOnClickListener from a class that didn't eventually inherit from View. Hope that helps... sounds to me like you may want to brush up a little bit on Java. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 types of people in the world...
