Not quite clear on how this code fits in with the rest, and what the error is, but....

If you're trying to configure a widget when it's added to the home screen, use a configuration activity:

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/appwidgets/index.html#Configuring

A configuration activity is not an alert, it's an Activity. You can make it look like an alert window by specifying a theme in the manifest:

<activity android:name=".MyConfigActivity"
*android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog"*>

First of all thanks for the quick reply,

Yes i have a 3 different xml file called options1, options2, options3
in the layout folder. In 1 .java file called "callalert" im using
alert.builder concept to display the alert message( which shows all 3
options)using the following code.

         final CharSequence[] items = {"Option1", "Option2",
"Option3"};
         AlertDialog.Builder builder = new
AlertDialog.Builder(context);
         builder.setTitle("Select");
         builder.setItems(items, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
{
             public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int item) {
                 Toast.makeText(context.getApplicationContext(),
items[item], Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
             }
         });
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
builder.show();

when the code is executed, it shows an error.

What i feel( which might be wrong) is that, there must be a different
code for widget to display alert, is that true?

Please help me fixing this... Thanks in advance.

Like Mark already said, you need to create a separate widget_info.xml
file for each size/content type, with appropriate attributes for
minWidth and minHeight.

Essentially, this means declaring separate widgets for all size /
content options. The user would see them all when choosing a widget to
add to the home screen.

Hi,
How can i give an option for the user to select 3 options(news only,
weather only, News and weather) in the dialog on load of the widget?

How is this done for the News and Weather widget? After selecting it a
dialog opens and asks for which content (i.e. size) the user wants to
have.

Have two<provider>    elements with two separate metadata files with the

I'm looking at creating an AppWidget and want to have the user select
which size they want before adding it. Thus, the user can choose 1x1,
2x2, etc. The Calendar widget in Android 2.2 (and possibly earlier,
but not in 1.6) does this. How is this done?
