Hi guys
In my app, i create a alertdialog, and load the resource from array.xml.
but i can't display the array item.


please help me

Than give us a little code snippet of array.xml and/or the way you create/call the dialog.

Can't help without the proper information

public class MainActivity extends Activity{
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
return new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this)
.setTitle(R.string.app_name)
.setItems(R.array.status_items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
OperaNormalItem(mCurItem, which);
}
})
.create();
}
}

<string-array name="status_items">
<item>"online"</item>
<item>"busy"</item>
<item>"outtolunch"</item>
</string-array>


if focus on it, it can display the text

This code is messy

JavaDoc of create():

Creates a AlertDialog with the arguments supplied to this builder. It does not Dialog.show() the dialog. This allows the user to do any extra processing before displaying the dialog. Use show() if you don't have any other processing to do and want this to be created and displayed.

Tried to call show() instead of create() ?

return new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this)
.setTitle(R.string.app_name)
.setItems(R.array.opear_normal_menu_items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
OperaNormalItem(mCurItem, which);
}
})
.show();

the app is crash...

Ok, than 2 things:
First, clean up your source... it is awful to see what you are programming.
Second, open LogCat and post the error please... find it here: Eclipse -> Window -> Show View -> Other -> Android -> LogCat

this is the error code from logcat
thread exiting with uncaught exception
(group=0x40010e28)

where we can get the error code about (group=0x40010e28) from the sdk?

If there is an uncaught exception, than you have to find the exception in your LogCat...

i tested mycode

protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {

if(id == app.CONTACT_NORMAL_FLAG)
{
return new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this)
.setTitle(R.string.app_name)
.setItems(R.array.opear_normal_menu_items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {

/* User clicked so do some stuff */
String[] items = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.opear_normal_menu_items);
new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this)
.setMessage("You selected: " + which + " , " + items[which])
.show();
}
})
.create();
}
}

if you create your alertdialog in the onCreateDialog(), no need use show(), because you return this dialog and display

if you create dialog in other function you need call show() for create and show the dialog.

Test: i used create dialog in other function, call the show(), but can't see the item text, same with before


i think the problem is not create() or show(), if in onCreateDialog() call create(), i can see the item, but can't see the item text.
if only call the create(), not call show() in other function, i can't see the dialog

First: your code is still messy and nearly unreadable
Second: Where is the StackTrace?

Third: Try to remove the " in your array.xml

i found the answer from the google developers

http://groups.google.com/group/android- ... 245f1c9422

Our theme for the Application was set to android:theme="@android:style/
Theme.Light" .

Setting the theme back to dark and our text now displays...

i tested the item can display.

This is an android bug ???

i have a method can fix this problem , if we setView in the dialog ,not setItem

LayoutInflater factory = LayoutInflater.from(this);
final View View = factory.inflate(R.layout.test, null);
ListView listView = (ListView)View.findViewById(R.id.rssListView);
listView.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
new String[] {"Ars Technica", "Slashdot", "GameKult"}));
return new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this)
.setIcon(R.drawable.msn)
.setTitle(R.string.delete_roster_title)
.setView(View)
.create();

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView android:id="@+id/rssListView"
android:background="#7700CC00"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" />
</LinearLayout>

Dear Google Developers,
Please fix this if you have not already.
