You're getting that error because the ArrayAdapter constructor requires the first argument to be a Context object. Since you're calling the constructor from inside an OnClickListener, this refers to the listener, not your activity (i.e. not a Context).

You can qualify the this keyword with the name of your outer class. Assuming that code is written inside of MainActivity, you could write MainActivity.this instead.

Using this won't work since you are in the scope of the OnClickListener.

You should try getContext() or getApplicationContext() instead of this.
