Question

Goodevening, im trying to create a progress spinning wheel when an onClick function start but i got an error from eclipse and seems it won’t work.

here is my code

    hwdebug.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            ProgressDialog MyDialog = ProgressDialog.show( this, "TEST" , "Loading. Please wait ... ", false);
                  // FUNCTION
            MyDialog.dismiss();
                                    }
    }

The error im getting from eclipse is that:

The method show(Context, CharSequence, CharSequence, boolean) in the
type ProgressDialog is not applicable for the arguments (new
View.OnClickListener(){}, String, String, boolean)

Any suggestion? Thanks 🙂

Change

ProgressDialog MyDialog = 
       ProgressDialog.show( this, "TEST" , "Loading. Please wait ... ", false);

to

ProgressDialog MyDialog =
                          ProgressDialog.show( CurrentActivity.this, "TEST" ,
                                 "Loading. Please wait ... ", false);

use Current Activity Context instead of View to show ProgressDialog or you can get Context by using v.getContext()
