Tactically, there seem to be some scenarios in which getContext() of a View does not return an Activity, but rather something else (ContextWrapper, IIRC). Strategically, it may be cleaner for you to define an interface, have MyHorizontalScrollView hold an instance of that interface, have your activity supply MyHorizontalScrollView with an implementation of that interface, and have MyHorizontalScrollView call methods on that interface implementation as needed. In particular, I would make the interface be "evented" -- MyHorizontalScrollView should neither know nor care what other widgets are floating around, so it should be surfacing events and letting the activity handle them, rather than having the interface supply objects to MyHorizontalScrollView and having it massage other widgets. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 4.0 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
