How to use Toast in ASyncTask/onPostExecute with string from resources?

Question

I have the following code:

@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Void arg0) {
                    ...
        Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), getBaseContext().getResources().getString(R.string.toast_sync_completed), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

It fails (FC). If pass "Test string" instead of getResources().getString(R.string.toast_sync_completed), then it works correctly. What am I doing wrong?

Solution

Change getBaseContext()... to getApplicationContext().....

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), getApplicationContext().getResources().getString(R.string.toast_sync_completed), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Try this code : Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), getApplicationContext().getResources().getString(R.string.to‌​ast_sync_completed), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Actually it works both with ApplicationContext and BaseContext - the problem was in another code.

protected void onPostExecute(String result) { Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), result, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } For me it's not working. Error shows: The method getApplicationContext() is undefined for the type SingupMember
