“'this' is not available” in debug windows of Android Studio

Question

I get this message in debug windows in Android Studio. This is not a static method, nor is it a class. What does it mean?

Answer 1

this keyword is references to the current object instance, as in the the official Java documentation.

In your case the error message 'this' is not available means that the debugger cannot access (i.e. does not know) the current object.
