23,733 PointsYou need to create a new instance of AlertDialogFragment. Then call the show() method on the instance and pass in getFragmentManager() and the message:
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import java.io.IOException;
public class MovieActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
// Get some movie information!
String apiUrl = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies.json?apikey=xyz&q=hobbit";
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder()
.url(apiUrl)
.build();
Call call = client.newCall(request);
call.enqueue(new Callback() {
@Override
public void onFailure(Request request, IOException e) {
AlertDialogFragment dialog = new AlertDialogFragment();
dialog.show(getFragmentManager(), "error_dialog");
}
@Override
public void onResponse(Response response) throws IOException { }
});
}
}
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class AlertDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {
@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Context context = getActivity();
// Insert code here!
AlertDialog.Builder builder= new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
builder.setTitle("Sorry!")
.setMessage("Try again!")
.setPositiveButton("OK", null);
return builder.create();
}
}
