Re: [android-developers] Re: How to access shared preference outside of Activity

[Gene Augustine]

I had asked the question " Is it possible to pass a variable to the
characters method event in the XMLReader.parse() of a SAX2 driver? If so
does anyone have an example? and was sent a message to use
PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences().
I entered the statement:

 SharedPreferences mySharedPreferences =

PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(*this*);

and received the message :
“The method getDefaultSharedPreferences(Context) in the type PreferenceManager
is not applicable for the arguments (RSSHandler)”.
Am I missing something or is this not a solution?

Thanks,
Gene

PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(), passing in the
Context supplied to you in onReceive() of your BroadcastReceiver.

getSharedPreferences is defined in Context. Service is a Context also.
