Android: How to run asynctask from different class file?

Question

When I use my code in one class file, it runs perfectly:

package com.example.downloadfile;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java

Some changes in your code will make it work :

public class DownloadFileAsync extends AsyncTask {
public static final int DIALOG_DOWNLOAD_PROGRESS = 0;
private ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;

private Context context;

public DownloadFileAsync(Context context) 
{
    this.context = context;
     mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(context);
     mProgressDialog.setMessage("Downloading file..");
     mProgressDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
     mProgressDialog.setMax(100);
     mProgressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL);
     mProgressDialog.setCancelable(true);

}

@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
    super.onPreExecute();
    mProgressDialog.show();
}

@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... aurl) {

    try {
        File root = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
        URL u = new URL(aurl[0]);
        HttpURLConnection c = (HttpURLConnection) u.openConnection();
        c.setRequestMethod("GET");
        c.setDoOutput(true);
        c.connect();

        int lenghtOfFile = c.getContentLength();

        FileOutputStream f = new FileOutputStream(new File(root + "/download/", aurl[1]));

        InputStream in = c.getInputStream();

        byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
        int len1 = 0;
        long total = 0;

        while ((len1 = in.read(buffer)) > 0) {
            total += len1; //total = total + len1
            publishProgress("" + (int)((total*100)/lenghtOfFile));
            f.write(buffer, 0, len1);
        }
        f.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.d("Downloader", e.getMessage());
    }

    return null;

}

protected void onProgressUpdate(String... progress) {
     Log.d("ANDRO_ASYNC",progress[0]);
     mProgressDialog.setProgress(Integer.parseInt(progress[0]));
}

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String unused) {
    mProgressDialog.dismiss();
}


}

And DownloadFile Class :

public class DownloadFile extends Activity {


private static String fileName = "yo.html";
private static String fileURL = "http://mydomain.com/tabletcms/tablets/tablet_content/000002/form/Best%20Form%20Ever/html";

 @Override
 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
 {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.main);
    TextView tv = new TextView(this);
    tv.setText("This is download file program with asynctask... ");
    tv.append("\nYo, this line is appended!");

    startDownload();

 }

private void startDownload() {
    new DownloadFileAsync(this).execute(fileURL,fileName);
}

}
