AsyncTask and Contexts

Question

So I\'m working out my first multi-threaded application using Android with the AsyncTask class. I\'m trying to use it to fire off a Geocoder in a second thread, then update

If doesn't look like you are using the params. You could use that to pass in the Conetxt.

public class GeoCode extends AsyncTask {
  @Override
  protected GeoThread doInBackground(Context... params) {
    List
 addresses = null;
    Geocoder geoCode = null; 
    geoCode = new Geocoder(params[0]); //Expects at minimum Geocoder(Context context);
    addresses = geoCode.getFromLocation(GoldenHour.lat, GoldenHour.lng, 1);
  }
}

Then from within your activity:

GeoCode myGeoCode = new GeoCode();
myGeoCode.execute(this);
