Hi,
I want to create a normal AlertDialog. I used the example provided by the android dev docs. I just changed the DIALOG_PAUSED_ID to DIALOG_DELETEDB. If I execute my code and press the button which in return should create the dialog, I get the following error log:
04-29 01:01:20.973: WARN/dalvikvm(1168): threadid=3: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001b188)

so here are the "relevant" code parts:
define the ID:
private static final int DELETE_DB_ID = 3;
private Dialog dialog;
static final int DIALOG_DELETEDB = 4;
onCreateDialog(...):
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
switch(id) {
case DIALOG_DELETEDB:
// do the work to define the pause Dialog
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setMessage("Are you sure you want to exit?")
.setCancelable(false)
.setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
Favs.this.finish();
}
})
.setNegativeButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
dialog.cancel();
}
});
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
alert.show();
break;
default:
dialog = null;
}
return dialog;
}
Here I try to "create" the dialog:
@Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(int featureId, MenuItem item) {
switch(item.getItemId()) {
case ADD_ID:
createNote();
return true;
case DELETE_DB_ID:
showDialog(DIALOG_DELETEDB);
return true;
}
return super.onMenuItemSelected(featureId, item);
}
As I already said, I just copied the code and changed the name. Unfortunately, I don't understand the error log message.. :/ Somehow I think I don't return the created dialog, but I cannot see "where" my reference is or where/what I have to return...
thanks in advance for help.
