Close the current activity when you only have a reference to Context

Question

If I have a reference to Context, is it possible to finish the current activity?

I don\'t have the reference to current activity.

Answer 1

If you have access to the running view of the Activity you want to finish (for example, you are in a click listener), you could do:

((Activity)getContext()).finish();
