I use a extended activity in my old project, and I want to use startActivityForResult() in the public onCreate() function.
However I don't know how to solve the error
System.err: Caused by: java.lang.Exception: Failed resolving method startActivityForResult on class android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity
the code was ok.
activity.startActivityForResult( intent, this.MY_PERMISSION_REQUEST );
the above code was in the public onCreate() function.
but when I upgraded all the npm packges, including updating android platform to v5.0.0 and android library to v28.
and update the code from
class MainActivity extends android.app.Activity {
to
class MainActivity extends android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity {
the old code just not work anymore.
System.err: Caused by: java.lang.Exception: Failed resolving method startActivityForResult on class android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity
I think maybe it's related to startActivityForResult().
I'm new to nativescript and android.
How do I use this function in my extended activity correctly?
I want to get this answer.
But if there are other workarounds will be good, too.
For example, I tried to use old code back
class MainActivity extends android.app.Activity {
the above one, but not work.

If there are any methods to make the code startActivityForResult work again will all be ok.
My AndroidManifest.xml contains
android:minSdkVersion="21"
android:targetSdkVersion="23"
Does that mean all the devices >= 21 will be accepted,
android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity
the doc shows added in version 25.1.0
will I need to update my AndroidManifest.xml, too?
update
the code is from https://docs.nativescript.org/core-concepts/android-runtime/advanced-topics/extend-application-activity#extending-activity
using TYPESCRIPT
@JavaProxy("org.myApp.MainActivity")
class Activity extends android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity {
private _callbacks: AndroidActivityCallbacks;
public readonly MY_PERMISSION_REQUEST = 100;
public onCreate(savedInstanceState: android.os.Bundle): void {
if (!this._callbacks) {
setActivityCallbacks(this);
}
this._callbacks.onCreate(this, savedInstanceState, super.onCreate);
let intent: android.content.Intent = new android.content.Intent( ( <any> android.provider.Settings ).ACTION_HOME_SETTINGS );
intent.setData( Uri.parse( "package:" + context.getPackageName() ) );
let activity = app.android.foregroundActivity || app.android.startActivity;
activity.startActivityForResult( intent, this.MY_PERMISSION_REQUEST );
}
almost all the same, but add some code for startActivityForResult.
if removing the line startActivityForResult, everything works fine again.
update ###
same error when using this.startActivityForResult()
