I have a simple app and I'm using the AsyncTask to test out a
background process, for clearness purposes I've opted to put my
AsyncTask in a separate class rather than in an inner class, which
where my problems begin, this is my AsyncTask

package org.tutorial.test101.tasks;

import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.util.Log;

public class LoginTask extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {

        Context ctx;
        ProgressDialog pDialog;


        public LoginTask(Context context){
                super();
                this.ctx=context;
        }
        @Override
        protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
                Log.i("LOGGER", "Starting...");
                try{
                        Thread.sleep(8000);
                }catch(InterruptedException e){

                }
                return null;
        }

        @Override
        protected void onPostExecute(String result) {

                        Log.i("LOGGER", "Done...");
                        pDialog.dismiss();
                      //
                super.onPostExecute(result);
        }

        @Override
        protected void onPreExecute() {
                pDialog=new ProgressDialog(ctx);
                pDialog.setTitle("Login");
                pDialog.setMessage("doing stuff..");
                pDialog.show();
        }


}

What I'd like is that once the task is complete, I do something in the
UI thread may be start another activity or even display a Toast saying
activity complete. I know I can't start a new Activity in the
onPostExecute() so I need to start it in the UI thread any idea how I
can do this? This is my Activity that starts the AsyncTask

package org.tutorial.test101.activities;

import org.tutorial.test101.tasks.LoginTask;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;

public class Test101 extends Activity{
        private Button btnLogin;
        private LoginTask mLoginTask;
        private Context context=this;
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        btnLogin=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btnLogin);
        btnLogin.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){

                        public void onClick(View v) {
                                if(mLoginTask==null){
                                        mLoginTask=new LoginTask(context);
                                        mLoginTask.execute(null);
                                }

                        }

        });
    }
