AccountAuthenticatorActivity, ActionBarActivity, ActivityGroup, AliasActivity, ExpandableListActivity, FragmentActivity, LauncherActivity, ListActivity, NativeActivity, PreferenceActivity, TabActivity

AccountAuthenticatorActivity	Base class for implementing an Activity that is used to help implement an AbstractAccountAuthenticator.
ActionBarActivity	Base class for activities that use the support library action bar features.
ActivityGroup	This class was deprecated in API level 13. Use the new `Fragment` and `FragmentManager` APIs instead; these are also available on older platforms through the Android compatibility package.
AliasActivity	Stub activity that launches another activity (and then finishes itself) based on information in its component's manifest meta-data.
ExpandableListActivity	An activity that displays an expandable list of items by binding to a data source implementing the ExpandableListAdapter, and exposes event handlers when the user selects an item.
FragmentActivity	Base class for activities that want to use the support-based `Fragment` and `Loader` APIs.
LauncherActivity	Displays a list of all activities which can be performed for a given intent.
ListActivity	An activity that displays a list of items by binding to a data source such as an array or Cursor, and exposes event handlers when the user selects an item.
NativeActivity	Convenience for implementing an activity that will be implemented purely in native code.
PreferenceActivity	This is the base class for an activity to show a hierarchy of preferences to the user.
TabActivity	This class was deprecated in API level 13. New applications should use Fragments instead of this class; to continue to run on older devices, you can use the v4 support library which provides a version of the Fragment API that is compatible down to `DONUT`.

Public Methods

public void applyOverrideConfiguration (Configuration overrideConfiguration)

Added in API level 17

Call to set an "override configuration" on this context -- this is a configuration that replies one or more values of the standard configuration that is applied to the context. See createConfigurationContext(Configuration) for more information.

This method can only be called once, and must be called before any calls to getResources() are made.

public Resources getResources ()

Added in API level 1

Return a Resources instance for your application's package.

public Object getSystemService (String name)

Added in API level 1

Return the handle to a system-level service by name. The class of the returned object varies by the requested name. Currently available names are:

WINDOW_SERVICE ("window"): The top-level window manager in which you can place custom windows. The returned object is a WindowManager.
LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE ("layout_inflater"): A LayoutInflater for inflating layout resources in this context.
ACTIVITY_SERVICE ("activity"): A ActivityManager for interacting with the global activity state of the system.
POWER_SERVICE ("power"): A PowerManager for controlling power management.
ALARM_SERVICE ("alarm"): A AlarmManager for receiving intents at the time of your choosing.
NOTIFICATION_SERVICE ("notification"): A NotificationManager for informing the user of background events.
KEYGUARD_SERVICE ("keyguard"): A KeyguardManager for controlling keyguard.
LOCATION_SERVICE ("location"): A LocationManager for controlling location (e.g., GPS) updates.
SEARCH_SERVICE ("search"): A SearchManager for handling search.
VIBRATOR_SERVICE ("vibrator"): A Vibrator for interacting with the vibrator hardware.
CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE ("connection"): A ConnectivityManager for handling management of network connections.
WIFI_SERVICE ("wifi"): A WifiManager for management of Wi-Fi connectivity.
INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE ("input_method"): An InputMethodManager for management of input methods.
UI_MODE_SERVICE ("uimode"): An UiModeManager for controlling UI modes.
DOWNLOAD_SERVICE ("download"): A DownloadManager for requesting HTTP downloads

Note: System services obtained via this API may be closely associated with the Context in which they are obtained from. In general, do not share the service objects between various different contexts (Activities, Applications, Services, Providers, etc.)

Parameters

name	The name of the desired service.

Returns

The service or null if the name does not exist.

public Resources.Theme getTheme ()

Added in API level 1

Return the Theme object associated with this Context.

public void setTheme (int resid)

Added in API level 1

Set the base theme for this context. Note that this should be called before any views are instantiated in the Context (for example before calling setContentView(View) or inflate(int, ViewGroup)).

Parameters

resid	The style resource describing the theme.

Protected Methods

protected void attachBaseContext (Context newBase)

Added in API level 1

Set the base context for this ContextWrapper. All calls will then be delegated to the base context. Throws IllegalStateException if a base context has already been set.

Parameters

newBase	The new base context for this wrapper.

protected void onApplyThemeResource (Resources.Theme theme, int resid, boolean first)

Added in API level 1

Called by setTheme(int) and getTheme() to apply a theme resource to the current Theme object. Can override to change the default (simple) behavior. This method will not be called in multiple threads simultaneously.

Parameters

theme	The Theme object being modified.
resid	The theme style resource being applied to `theme`.
first	Set to true if this is the first time a style is being applied to `theme`.
