Hi everyone, I have a problem with AlertDialogs that seems to be simple, but which puzzles me for quite a while now. I'd like to show the user an AlertDialog with varying messages (for example, "Number of files: <some number>"). I tried different approaches, but none worked for me.
When using managed dialogs, I can only pass a dialog id to onCreateDialog (I know this was fixed in API level 8, but I need compatibility with API level 3). I cannot pass text parameters such as <some number>. So this approach seems to work for static messages only. When creating and showing the AlertDialog on my own, I have to explicitly dismiss the dialog in the Activity method onDestroy (otherwise I'd get a window leaked error). With this approach I would have to store references to all open dialogs in an activity, which seems too tedious for such a simple task. Another problem is that I would have to implement dialog persistence at configuration changes on my own. Did I miss something?
