Thanks ... this is very helpful. I am indeed using Dialog.show(). If I
move
to Activity.showDialog(int) it's not clear to me how to get hold of
the
id of my Dialog, since I don't specify one when creating it. Here is
the code snippet:
// Create a general message box
AlertDialog.Builder messagebuild = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
messagebuild.setPositiveButton("OK", this);
message = messagebuild.create();
// Create the message handler which will handle messages
messageHandler = new Handler() {
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
if(msg.what == SAVEFILEERROR) {
message.setTitle("Error");
message.setMessage("this error");
// replace message.show()
//message.show();
message.getOwnerActivity().showDialog(id???);
}
}
};
How do I assign or retrieve the id of the Dialog created by
AlertDialog.Builder?
Thanks!
