Cannot cast from LegacyContext to Activity

Cannot cast from LegacyContext to Activity

[dconlisk]

OK I got this to work with a few changes:

replace line

Activity activity = (Activity)this.ctx;

with

Activity activity = cordova.getActivity();

in ScreenOrientation.java (line 30).

Replace the javascript call to PhoneGap.exec with

cordova.exec(null, null, "ScreenOrientation", "set", [str]);

Note that the first two parameters are callback functions, which I'm not using, which is why I'm passing null for those parameters.

Cheers,

David
