Passing context for a radio group in a fragment instead of activity? - android-studio

Question

I'm trying to use a RadioGroup widget inside a fragment instead of an activity. I'm getting an error on the following line of code:
RadioButton button = new RadioButton(this);
I'm not sure what to pass instead of 'this'
I believe the problem is either in the snippet above or here:
RadioGroup group = (RadioGroup) getView().findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);
Full code:
public class fragment1 extends Fragment {
private Button btnNextFrag;
#Nullable
#Override
public View onCreateView(#NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, #Nullable ViewGroup container, #Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment1_layout, container, false);
createRadioButtons();
return view;
}
private void createRadioButtons() {
RadioGroup group = (RadioGroup) getView().findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);
String[] questions1 = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.question_1_answers);
for (int i=0;i<questions1.length;i++){
String question = questions1[i];
RadioButton button = new RadioButton(this);
button.setText(question);
group.addView(button);
}
}
}

Answer 1

The constructor requires context so use getActivity() instead of this. You can also use getContext().

Answer 2

public class fragment1 extends Fragment {
private Button btnNextFrag;
#Nullable
#Override
public View onCreateView(#NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, #Nullable ViewGroup container, #Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment1_layout, container, false);
createRadioButton(view);
return view;
}
private void createRadioButton(View view) {
RadioGroup group = (RadioGroup)view.findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);
String[] questions1 = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.question_1_answers);
for (int i=0;i<questions1.length;i++){
String question = questions1[i];
RadioButton button = new RadioButton(getActivity());
button.setText(question);
group.addView(button);
}
}
}
