Courses Plus Student 35,157 PointsUpdating my previous question.
I keep getting the message to "move the update method" into the Handler. But I've done that. So now I am even more confused.
Here's another version of my code.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
Button button;
TwitterClient twitterClient = new TwitterClient();
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.update_button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v){
}
});
}
class TwitterHandler extends Handler {
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
twitterClient.update();
}
}
}

23,733 PointsWhere did your TwitterThread inner class and its related code in the onCreate() go? After task 1 the code should look like this:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
Button button;
TwitterClient twitterClient = new TwitterClient();
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final TwitterThread twitterThread = new TwitterThread();
twitterThread.setName("TwitterThread");
twitterThread.start();
button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.update_button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v){
}
});
}
class TwitterHandler extends Handler {
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
twitterClient.update();
}
}
class TwitterThread extends Thread {
@Override
public void run() {
}
}
}

Courses Plus Student 35,157 PointsThank you. I've struggled a lot with this. I understand it with the separate class files. Having trouble stuffing all the code into one file.
