using findviewbyid in a class that does NOT extend Activity in android
I have a class that is currently extending Activity and I have methods like findViewById, ArrayAdapter etc.
I want to turn it into an independent class but all the above methods become undefined. What is the problem? Shouldn't importing the classes be enough? For eg, I import android.view.View for findViewById but it still makes no difference.
Please advise.
