Reset Android Activity

I have an activity in android application and from that I am calling a method of an AsyncTask class which is calling a webservice. I want to reset/reload my activity on the basis of the result i get from that method. How can I reset my activity from that class?

Solution

  • You can try the following

    Pass calling Activity context to your AsyncTask in constructor and save it in a variable Context context.

    Then in your PostExecute method of AsyncTask, write following lines :

            Intent targetIntent = new Intent(context, TargetActivity.class);
            // Add your data to intent
        targetIntent.putExtra("intent_extra_key", "intent_extra_value");
        context.startActivity(targetIntent);
        ((Activity) context).finish();

    Revert back for any issue.
