Code challenge

Add the 'onPostExecute()' method to the AsyncTask below. Make it 'protected void' and remember that the parameter is related to the return type of 'doInBackground()'. Please help i am geting an error. protected class CustomAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Object, Void, String> {
@Override protected String doInBackground(Object... params) { // Imagine this is some code to do some work return "Done!"; } protected void onPostExecute(String){ }

}

So strange that everything in the world is camel cased in the language it seems, but @Override comes out of nowhere to surprise you with 10 mins of looking for that one letter case difference. That was my issue anyways. I'm glad I found your answer.

Hi Ivan,

you need to add @Override above the onPostExecute method and you have to define a variable as a parameter to the onPostExecute, like this

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
}
