class Outer extends Activity
{

 private Handler mHandler = new Handler();

  StopTheThread()
  {
     mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);// this is the wat i want to do
  }

  class Inner 
  {
     final Runnable mUpdateTask = new = new Runnable() {
           public void run() {

           //Some Code Goes Here

       }
     };

     InnerClassMethod()
     {

       mHandler.removeCallbacks(mUpdateTimeTask);// This statement working fine here
      } 

  }

Create an Inner class object and then access it

Inner inner = new Inner();
inner.mUpdateTask
// use this

OR

you can create a static mUpdateTask object and can access it using class name

Inner.mUpdateTask

just make the mUpdateTask static ... and call with inner class name.. Inner.mUpdateTask

also you can use getters which will be able to retrun the mUpdatetask.

if you are creating object of this Innerclass i really dont see any point of this question.. you can always call in the way Vivien described above.

You need an instance of Inner to access the mUpdateTask variable.

Something like:

Inner inner = new Inner();
inner.mUpdateTask
// ...
