The method getActivity() is undefined for the type MainActivity

I'm trying to use the demo how ever when I have pulled it in to my MainActivity I am getting the error "The method getActivity() is undefined for the type MainActivity"

createRequestSuccessListener() and createRequestErrorListener() also got the same problem

package com.example.testgetanik;

    import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import com.android.volley.Request.Method;
import com.android.volley.RequestQueue;
import com.android.volley.toolbox.Volley;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import com.android.volley.Response.ErrorListener;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
        params.put("id","1");
        params.put("name", "myname");

        String url = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies/770672123/cast.json?apikey=3p9ehnhzbxwpbd6mk8fncf67";
        RequestQueue requestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(getActivity());
        CustomRequest jsObjRequest = new CustomRequest(Method.POST,url,params,this.createRequestSuccessListener(),this.createRequestErrorListener());

        requestQueue.add(jsObjRequest);
        try{
            URL urlToRequest = new URL(url);
            WebServiceAsyncTask asyncTask = new WebServiceAsyncTask();
            asyncTask.execute(urlToRequest);
        }catch(MalformedURLException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

}

        private Response.Listener<JSONObject> createRequestSuccessListener(){
            return new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
                    Log.d(Constants.TAG, "===> Response => "+response.toString());
                }
            };
        }

        private Response.ErrorListener createRequestErrorListener(){
            return new Response.ErrorListener() {
                @Override
                public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                    Log.d(Constants.TAG, "===> JsonObjectRequest error ");
                    Log.d(Constants.TAG, error.toString());
                }
            };
        }

Activity is a Context, so when you need a Context inside Activity, just use this. If you need a Context inside a Fragment, use getActivity().

If your class extends Activity then you should use this or activityname.this or getApplicationContext to get the context.

if it extends from Fragment then you should use getActivity().

Try below code:-

getActivity()

change to 

MainActivity.this

You have to pass activity instance.
