Question

I have a Dialog that has an array of strings (name) and bools (checked or not)

external to the dialog selection I update the bools, The first click they are updated, after this they are no longer synced

OnCreateDialog only is called once. I tried dismissing the dialog by calling (d.dissmiss()) but I cant get it to sync.

Any Chance someone can help?

    protected String[] _Geooptions;
protected boolean[] _Geoselections;

Dialog d;

@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
    switch (id) {
    case 0:
        d = new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
        .setTitle("Set Geo Filters")
        .setMultiChoiceItems(mapGeoManager._Geooptions,
                mapGeoManager._Geoselections,
                new GeoDialogSelectionClickHandler())
        .setPositiveButton("OK", new GeoDialogButtonClickHandler())
        .create();
        return d;}


public class GeoDialogSelectionClickHandler implements
        DialogInterface.OnMultiChoiceClickListener {
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int clicked,
            boolean selected) {
        Log.i("ME", mapGeoManager._Geooptions[clicked] + " selected: "
                + selected);
        mapGeoManager.FilterUpdate();

    }
}


public class GeoDialogButtonClickHandler implements
        DialogInterface.OnClickListener {
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int clicked) {
        switch (clicked) {
        case DialogInterface.BUTTON_POSITIVE:
            Log.d(TAG, "ON CLICK BUTTON POSITIVE!");
            mapGeoManager.FilterUpdate();

            break;
        }
    }
}

This Answer stems from Luksprog comment of getting to the Listview of the Dialog

I changed the Dialog d variable to an AlertDialog and on my clearALL or SelectAll button calls I then manually iterate through the list and update the options – not the most efficient way of doing this, but the only way it seemed to work (his notifyonchange didnt do anything for me – I am confused why it wouldn’t…)

ListView curList = d.getListView();
for(int i = 0; i < mapGeoManager._Geoselections.length; ++i)
    curList.setItemChecked(i, mapGeoManager._Geoselections[i]);
