well y is an instance of of my class and foo() is defined by me so I start an activity, however, the caller (from the thread.run()) method is not something that I do. I just noticed someone calling it like that (from the Thread.run() method) and it was not working, hence my question...Is the problem that it is being called from a thread or that there is a progree dialog being showed? or neither?
