The method loadAnimation in the type AnimationUtils is not applicable for the arguments

When I try to create an animation using the following code I get the following error:

The method loadAnimation(context,int) in the type AnimationUtils is not applicable for the arguments(MainActivity.PlaceholderFragment,int)

Animation textAnimation= AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this,R.anim.text_animation);

I also get a null pointer exception. How do I fix this?

Try This

Animation rotateimage = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this,android.R.anim.fade_in);

i think this is something which is not equal to Context, try replacing below code.

Animation textAnimation= AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getContext(),R.anim.text_animation);

EDIT: if you are using this code inside Fragment then call getActivity().getContext() instead this

Looks like you are trying to call this function from inside the PlaceholderFragment that is declared inside MainActivity. loadAnimation expects a context in the first parameter. You can fix this problem by chNging the first argument from "this" to either getActivity() or to MainActivity.this
