How to startActivity within RecyclerView CustomAdapter

I want to add startActivity() to my onClick listeners in my CustomAdapter class.

CustomAdapter.java:

import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView;

import java.util.List;

import static androidx.core.content.ContextCompat.startActivity;

public class CustomAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<CustomAdapter.ViewHolder> {
    private List<String> data;
    public CustomAdapter (List<String> data){
        this.data = data;
    }

    @Override
    public CustomAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        View rowItem = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.list_item_view, parent, false);
        return new ViewHolder(rowItem);
    }

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(CustomAdapter.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
        holder.textView.setText(this.data.get(position));
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return this.data.size();
    }

    public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
        private TextView textView;

        public ViewHolder(View view) {
            super(view);
            view.setOnClickListener(this);
            this.textView = view.findViewById(R.id.textview);
        }

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
           startActivity(new Intent(CustomAdapter.this, LoginActivity.class));
        }
    }
}

The problem is I’m getting the following error in my IDE:

Cannot resolve constructor 'Intent(com.kenadams.app.CustomAdapter, java.lang.Class<com.kenadams.app.LoginActivity>)'

Initially , I thought this was happening because my CustomAdapter class was static. So, I made it non-static. But, the problem still persists. Pls guide me on making this intent work.

Answer

In you customer adapter class you need to get context using constructor.

private Context mcon;

and in constructor->

public CustomAdapter (Context _mcon, List<String> data){

this.mcon = _mcon;
    this.data = data;
}

and then in onClickListener->

@Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
    mcon.startActivity(new Intent(mcon, LoginActivity.class));

        }
