如何在 Android 上显示警报对话框？

Question

I want to display a dialog/popup window with a message to the user that shows "Are you sure you want to delete this entry?" with one button that says 'Delete'. When Delete is touched, it should delete that entry, otherwise nothing.

I have written a click listener for those buttons, but how do I invoke a dialog or popup and its functionality?

Answer 1

You could use an AlertDialog for this and construct one using its Builder class. The example below uses the default constructor that only takes in a Context since the dialog will inherit the proper theme from the Context you pass in, but there's also a constructor that allows you to specify a specific theme resource as the second parameter if you desire to do so.

new AlertDialog.Builder(context)
    .setTitle("Delete entry")
    .setMessage("Are you sure you want to delete this entry?")

    // Specifying a listener allows you to take an action before dismissing the dialog.
    // The dialog is automatically dismissed when a dialog button is clicked.
    .setPositiveButton(android.R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) { 
            // Continue with delete operation
        }
     })

    // A null listener allows the button to dismiss the dialog and take no further action.
    .setNegativeButton(android.R.string.no, null)
    .setIcon(android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_alert)
    .show();

Answer 2

Try this code:

AlertDialog.Builder builder1 = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
builder1.setMessage("Write your message here.");
builder1.setCancelable(true);

builder1.setPositiveButton(
    "Yes",
    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
            dialog.cancel();
        }
    });

builder1.setNegativeButton(
    "No",
    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
            dialog.cancel();
        }
    });

AlertDialog alert11 = builder1.create();
alert11.show();

Answer 3

The code which David Hedlund has posted gave me the error:

Unable to add window — token null is not valid

If you are getting the same error use the below code. It works!!

runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {

        if (!isFinishing()){
            new AlertDialog.Builder(YourActivity.this)
              .setTitle("Your Alert")
              .setMessage("Your Message")
              .setCancelable(false)
              .setPositiveButton("ok", new OnClickListener() {
                  @Override
                  public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                      // Whatever...
                  }
              }).show();
        }
    }
});

Answer 4

Use AlertDialog.Builder :

AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
//set icon 
 .setIcon(android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_alert)
//set title
.setTitle("Are you sure to Exit")
//set message
.setMessage("Exiting will call finish() method")
//set positive button
.setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {
   //set what would happen when positive button is clicked    
        finish();
    }
})
//set negative button
.setNegativeButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {
   //set what should happen when negative button is clicked
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Nothing Happened",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
})
.show();

You will get the following output.

Answer 5

Just a simple one! Create a dialog method, something like this anywhere in your Java class:

public void openDialog() {
    final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(context); // Context, this, etc.
    dialog.setContentView(R.layout.dialog_demo);
    dialog.setTitle(R.string.dialog_title);
    dialog.show();
}

Now create Layout XML dialog_demo.xml and create your UI/design. Here is a sample one I created for demo purposes:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/dialog_info"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:padding="10dp"
        android:text="@string/dialog_text"/>

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="40dp"
        android:layout_below="@id/dialog_info">

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/dialog_cancel"
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_weight="0.50"
            android:background="@color/dialog_cancel_bgcolor"
            android:text="Cancel"/>

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/dialog_ok"
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_weight="0.50"
            android:background="@color/dialog_ok_bgcolor"
            android:text="Agree"/>
    </LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

Now you can call openDialog() from anywhere you like :) Here is the screenshot of above code.

Note that text and color are used from strings.xml and colors.xml . You can define your own.

Answer 6

Nowadays it's better to use DialogFragment instead of direct AlertDialog creation.

Answer 7

You can use this code:

AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog2 = new AlertDialog.Builder(
    AlertDialogActivity.this);

// Setting Dialog Title
alertDialog2.setTitle("Confirm Delete...");

// Setting Dialog Message
alertDialog2.setMessage("Are you sure you want delete this file?");

// Setting Icon to Dialog
alertDialog2.setIcon(R.drawable.delete);

// Setting Positive "Yes" Btn
alertDialog2.setPositiveButton("YES",
    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            // Write your code here to execute after dialog
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                           "You clicked on YES", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                    .show();
        }
    });

// Setting Negative "NO" Btn
alertDialog2.setNegativeButton("NO",
    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            // Write your code here to execute after dialog
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                           "You clicked on NO", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                    .show();
            dialog.cancel();
        }
    });

// Showing Alert Dialog
alertDialog2.show();

for me

new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
    .setTitle("Closing application")
    .setMessage("Are you sure you want to exit?")
    .setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
          @Override

Answer 11

This is a basic sample of how to create an Alert Dialog :

AlertDialog.Builder dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
dialog.setCancelable(false);
dialog.setTitle("Dialog on Android");
dialog.setMessage("Are you sure you want to delete this entry?" );
dialog.setPositiveButton("Delete", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
        //Action for "Delete".
    }
})
        .setNegativeButton("Cancel ", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            //Action for "Cancel".
            }
        });

final AlertDialog alert = dialog.create();
alert.show();

Answer 12

This is definitely help for you. Try this code: On click of a button, you can put one, two or three buttons with an alert dialog...

SingleButtton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View arg0) {
        // Creating alert Dialog with one Button

        AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(AlertDialogActivity.this).create();

        // Setting Dialog Title
        alertDialog.setTitle("Alert Dialog");

        // Setting Dialog Message
        alertDialog.setMessage("Welcome to Android Application");

        // Setting Icon to Dialog
        alertDialog.setIcon(R.drawable.tick);

        // Setting OK Button
        alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,int which)
            {
                // Write your code here to execute after dialog    closed
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"You clicked on OK", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });

        // Showing Alert Message
        alertDialog.show();
    }
});

btnAlertTwoBtns.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View arg0) {
        // Creating alert Dialog with two Buttons

        AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(AlertDialogActivity.this);

        // Setting Dialog Title
        alertDialog.setTitle("Confirm Delete...");

        // Setting Dialog Message
        alertDialog.setMessage("Are you sure you want delete this?");

        // Setting Icon to Dialog
        alertDialog.setIcon(R.drawable.delete);

        // Setting Positive "Yes" Button
        alertDialog.setPositiveButton("YES",
                new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,int which) {

Answer 14

I have created a dialog for asking a Person whether he wants to call a Person or not.

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class Firstclass extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.first);

Answer 15

you can try this....

    AlertDialog.Builder dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
dialog.setCancelable(false);
dialog.setTitle("Dialog on Android");
dialog.setMessage("Are you sure you want to delete this entry?" );
dialog.setPositiveButton("Delete", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
        //Action for "Delete".
    }
})
        .setNegativeButton("Cancel ", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            //Action for "Cancel".
            }
        });

final AlertDialog alert = dialog.create();
alert.show();

Answer 16

Try this code

AlertDialog.Builder alertDialogBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);

    // set title
    alertDialogBuilder.setTitle("AlertDialog Title");

    // set dialog message
    alertDialogBuilder
            .setMessage("Some Alert Dialog message.")
            .setCancelable(false)
            .setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                            Toast.makeText(this, "OK button click ", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                }
            })
            .setNegativeButton("CANCEL",new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                           Toast.makeText(this, "CANCEL button click ", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                    dialog.cancel();
                }
            });

    // create alert dialog
    AlertDialog alertDialog = alertDialogBuilder.create();

    // show it
    alertDialog.show();

Answer 17

You can create the dialog box using AlertDialog.Builder

Try this:

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
        builder.setMessage("Are you sure you want to delete this entry?");

        builder.setPositiveButton("Yes, please", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                //perform any action
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Yes clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });

        builder.setNegativeButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                //perform any action
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "No clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });

        //creating alert dialog
        AlertDialog alertDialog = builder.create();
        alertDialog.show();

To change the color of the positive & negative buttons of Alert dialog you can write the below two lines after alertDialog.show();

alertDialog.getButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_POSITIVE).setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.colorPrimary));
alertDialog.getButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_NEGATIVE).setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.colorPrimaryDark));

Answer 18

   new AlertDialog.Builder(v.getContext()).setMessage("msg to display!").show();

Answer 19

Just be careful when you want to dismiss the dialog - use dialog.dismiss() . In my first attempt I used dismissDialog(0) (which I probably copied from some place) which sometimes works. Using the object the system supplies sounds like a safer choice.

Answer 20

I'd like to add on David Hedlund great answer by sharing a more dynamic method than what he posted so it can be used when you do have a negative action to perform and when you don't, i hope it helps.

private void showAlertDialog(@NonNull Context context, @NonNull String alertDialogTitle, @NonNull String alertDialogMessage, @NonNull String positiveButtonText, @Nullable String negativeButtonText, @NonNull final int positiveAction, @Nullable final Integer negativeAction, @NonNull boolean hasNegativeAction)

Answer 21

I was using this AlertDialog in button onClick method:

button.setOnClickListener(v -> {
    AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
    LayoutInflater layoutInflaterAndroid = LayoutInflater.from(this);
    View view = layoutInflaterAndroid.inflate(R.layout.cancel_dialog, null);
    builder.setView(view);
    builder.setCancelable(false);
    final AlertDialog alertDialog = builder.create();
    alertDialog.show();

    view.findViewById(R.id.yesButton).setOnClickListener(v -> onBackPressed());
    view.findViewById(R.id.nobutton).setOnClickListener(v -> alertDialog.dismiss());
});

Answer 22

With the Material Components Library you can just use the MaterialAlertDialogBuilder

   MaterialAlertDialogBuilder(context)
        .setMessage("Are you sure you want to delete this entry?")
        .setPositiveButton("Delete") { dialog, which ->
            // Respond to positive button press
        }
        .setNegativeButton("Cancel") { dialog, which ->
            // Respond to positive button press
        }   
        .show()

With Compose 1.0.0-beta03 you can use:

val openDialog = remember { mutableStateOf(true) }

if (openDialog.value) {
    AlertDialog(
        onDismissRequest = {
            // Dismiss the dialog when the user clicks outside the dialog or on the back
            // button. If you want to disable that functionality, simply use an empty
            // onCloseRequest.
            openDialog.value = false
        },
        title = null,
        text = {
            Text(
                "Are you sure you want to delete this entry?"
            )
        },
        confirmButton = {
            TextButton(
                onClick = {
                    openDialog.value = false
                }
            ) {
                Text("Delete")
            }
        },
        dismissButton = {
            TextButton(
                onClick = {
                    openDialog.value = false
                }
            ) {
                Text("Cancel")
            }
        }
    )
}

Answer 23

you may try this way also, it will provide you material style dialogs

private void showDialog()
{
    String text2 = "<font color=#212121>Medi Notification</font>";//for custom title color

    AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this, R.style.AppCompatAlertDialogStyle);
    builder.setTitle(Html.fromHtml(text2));

    String text3 = "<font color=#A4A4A4>You can complete your profile now or start using the app and come back later</font>";//for custom message
    builder.setMessage(Html.fromHtml(text3));

    builder.setPositiveButton("DELETE", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which)
        {
            toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "DELETE", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
            toast.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);
            toast.show();              
        }
    });

    builder.setNegativeButton("CANCEL", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which)
        {
            toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "CANCEL", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
            toast.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);
            toast.show();
        }
    });
    builder.show();
}

Make this static method and use it where ever you want.

public static void showAlertDialog(Context context, String title, String message, String posBtnMsg, String negBtnMsg) {
            AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
            builder.setTitle(title);
            builder.setMessage(message);
            builder.setPositiveButton(posBtnMsg, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                    dialog.cancel();
                }
            });
            builder.setNegativeButton(negBtnMsg, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @Override

I want to display a dialog/popup window with a message to the user that shows "Are you sure you want to delete this entry?" with one button that says 'Delete'. When Delete is touched, it should delete that entry, otherwise nothing.

Answer 35

You can create Activity and extends AppCompatActivity. Then in the Manifest put next style:

<activity android:name=".YourCustomDialog"
            android:theme="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog">
</activity>

Inflate it by Buttons and TextViews

Then use this like a dialog.

For example, in the linearLayout I fill next parameters:

android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

In past few days my co-workers keep asking me about using AlertDialog in Xamarin.Android and almost all of them sent this question as the ref which they read before asking me (and didn't find the answer), so here is Xamarin.Android ( C# ) version:

    .SetTitle("Hello!")
    .SetMessage("Are you sure?")
    .SetPositiveButton("Ok", (sender, e) => { /* ok things */ })
    .SetNegativeButton("Cancel", (sender, e) => { /* cancel things */ })
    .Create();

alertDialog.Show();

// you can customize your AlertDialog, like so
var tvMessage = alertDialog.FindViewById<TextView>(Android.Resource.Id.Message);
tvMessage.TextSize = 13;
