556 PointsI'm following the steps exactly as shown in the video of starting a new activity but it continues to come up with an err
the error says The first parameter for the Intent constructor must be the current context (you can use 'LaunchActivity.this'). i have no idea what this means.
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class LaunchActivity extends Activity {
public Button mLaunchButton;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_launch);
mLaunchButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.launchButton);
mLaunchButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Add your code in here!
Intent intent = new Intent(this, FlightActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
}

Intent intent = new Intent(this, FlightActivity.class);
try
Intent intent = new Intent(LauncherActivity.this, FlightActivity.class);
