Source code this example is here - http://www.maximyudin.com/?p=32 . Sorry that I post code on my blog, simply here's very long format a source code.

It’s a tiny example about an using of alert dialogs (viz, AlertDialog.Builder). If you want to supplement this sample by some material, write me please.

Thanks you very much tum0rc0re,
this post is very very help full to me

Thank you for your tutorial. It's useful for me

This was a very handy tutorial, thank very much

Hi, thanks for the tutorial, it's any possibility that I could see the XML files?

Good Day!

I wanted to display an instructional message (a couple of sentences) with AlertDialog.Builder
Hence, I created string value under res/values/string.xml, because my text is long.

The problem is [font=Courier New]setMessage[/font]("CharSequence"), therefore I cannot write setMessage(R.string.text);

Any tricks OR other solutions?

TIA,

For the above I've tried:


But it gave me number. How do I assign value which is in [font=Courier New]string.xml [/font]through R.java or any other way?

That's because R.string.bla is a long... :s

use String lala = getString(R.string.bla); ...

Hi, everybody.
Hmmm...
My code is:
public void alert(){
new AlertDialog.Builder(reg.this)
.setMessage("Please, insert all needed information")
.setNeutralButton("Cancel",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton)
{
}
})
.show();
}

OnClickListener btnOnClick = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
log=txt_log.getText();
pass=txt_pass.getText();
if ((log!=null)&(pass!=null)){
showDate();
return;
}
else{
alert();
return;
}
}
};

It doesn't work. Where is my mistake?

Thanks for the good examples!

Hi

how do i start an sub-activity when the user click ok in the dialogue box itself?

Meaning from here:

public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {

}

writing the normal way doesnt seem to work.

like this:

Intent Myint = new Intent(this, subActivity.class);
startActivity(Myint);


thanks

I know that this was posted a while ago, but it may be helpful for future users. The reason why you are having problems starting your activity is because inside the onClick listener you are no longer inside your class that is extending activity. Therefore using the "this" keyword will give you errors because it doesn't exist there.

Solutions

Activity thisClass;

public class foo extends Activity{
public void onCreate(Bundle b){
thisClass = this;
}
}

Now in your startActivity call you can use "thisClass" instead of "this".
You can also just make a call to another method inside the class where the "this" variable is instantiated.

Hope this helps
