i have a problem when trying to add a programmatically defined radio button to a radio group.
so i have a method that when is called inflates a dialog, this dialog contains within it a list of subjects displayed as a list of checkBox. since i can't predefine how many subjects are needed in my radio group i decided to add them programmatically using the method mentioned earlier. for some reason the app keep on crashing every time i open the dialog. with the break point being when the radio button gets added to the radio group. here is a copy of the fragment responsible of calling the method (as well as the method called):
public class addPaymentFragment extends Fragment {
private RadioGroup radioGroup;
private RadioButton radioButton;
private SchoolViewModel schoolViewModel;
private NumberPicker numberPicker;
private Button btn;
private Subject subject;
private Dialog dialog;
private RadioGroup radioGroup0;
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_add_payment, container, false);
btn = v.findViewById(R.id.btn_add_payment);
radioGroup0 = v.findViewById(R.id.rg_select_subject);
radioGroup = v.findViewById(R.id.rg_add_payment);
numberPicker = v.findViewById(R.id.numberPicker);
numberPicker.setMinValue(0);
numberPicker.setMaxValue(10);
schoolViewModel = new ViewModelProvider(this).get(SchoolViewModel.class);
radioGroup.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new RadioGroup.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
@Override
public void onCheckedChanged(RadioGroup radioGroup, int i) {
schoolViewModel.getSingleTeacherWithSubjects(i).observe(getViewLifecycleOwner(), new Observer<TeacherWithSubjects>() {
@Override
public void onChanged(TeacherWithSubjects teacherWithSubjects) {
if (teacherWithSubjects.subjects.size() > 1) {
openDialog(teacherWithSubjects.subjects,radioGroup0);
} else {
subject = teacherWithSubjects.subjects.get(0);
}
}
});
}
});
schoolViewModel.getAllTeachers().observe(getViewLifecycleOwner(), new Observer<List<Teacher>>() {
@Override
public void onChanged(List<Teacher> teachers) {
addRadioButtons(teachers, radioGroup);
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Toast.makeText(getContext(), teachers.get(0).getTeacherName() + "", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
});
return v;
}
private void addRadioButtons(List<Teacher> teachers, RadioGroup radioGroup) {
for (Teacher i : teachers) {
//instantiate...
RadioButton radioButton = new RadioButton(getContext());
//set the values that you would otherwise hardcode in the xml...
RadioGroup.LayoutParams params = new RadioGroup.LayoutParams(RadioGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RadioGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params.bottomMargin = 25;
params.leftMargin = 20;
params.rightMargin = 20;
params.topMargin = 20;
radioButton.setLayoutParams(params);
//label the button...
radioButton.setBackground(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));
radioButton.setMinWidth(250);
radioButton.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.custom_checkbox);
radioButton.setElevation(16);
radioButton.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
radioButton.setText(i.getTeacherName());
radioButton.setPadding(50, 100, 50, 100);
radioButton.setButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_checkbox);
radioButton.setId(i.getTeacherId());
//add it to the group.
radioGroup.addView(radioButton);
}
}
void openDialog(List<Subject> subjects,RadioGroup radioGroup) {
dialog = new Dialog(getContext());
radioGroup = dialog.findViewById(R.id.rg_select_subject);
dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.choose_teached_subject_dialog);
dialog.setCancelable(false);
Button confirmSubject = dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_choose_subject);
Button cancelSubject = dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_dont_choose_subject);
//populate the checkBox
for (int i = 0; i<subjects.size(); i++){
RadioButton radioButton1 = new RadioButton(dialog.getContext());
RadioGroup.LayoutParams params = new RadioGroup.LayoutParams(RadioGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RadioGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params.bottomMargin = 25;
params.leftMargin = 20;
params.rightMargin = 20;
params.topMargin = 20;
radioButton1.setLayoutParams(params);
radioButton1.setBackground(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));

radioButton1.setId(i);
radioButton1.setText(subjects.get(i).getSubjectName());
radioButton1.setPadding(50, 100, 50, 100);
radioButton1.setButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_checkbox);
//add it to the group.
radioGroup.addView(radioButton1);
}
confirmSubject.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
dialog.dismiss();
Toast.makeText(getContext(), "Select a subject!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
cancelSubject.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
dialog.dismiss();
}
});
dialog.getWindow().setLayout(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));
dialog.getWindow().getAttributes().windowAnimations = R.style.DialogAnimation;
dialog.getWindow().setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
dialog.show();
}
}

i apologize in advance if there is any mistakes in my question, am a bit new to asking questions here so please take it easy on me and thanks in advance
so i have managed to find the problem which was i called radioGroup = dialog.findViewById(R.id.rg_select_subject);
before finishing setting up the dialog, which mean that the radioGroup object was never assigned. here is how the related bloc looks like after fixing it:
void openDialog(List<Subject> subjects,RadioGroup radioGroup) {
dialog = new Dialog(getContext());
dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.choose_teached_subject_dialog);
dialog.setCancelable(false);
radioGroup = dialog.findViewById(R.id.rg_select_subject);
Button confirmSubject = dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_choose_subject);
Button cancelSubject = dialog.findViewById(R.id.btn_dont_choose_subject);
