    }
    };
    date.init( year, monthOfYear, dayOfMonth, new MyOnDateChangedListener() );

    }

Answer 1

Define editText and Button in xml and below code in your activity:

        editText=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.date);
        button=(Button) findViewById(R.id.play);
        button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
                showDialog(DATE_DIALOG_ID);
            }
        });

        Calendar c=Calendar.getInstance();
        mYear=c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
        mMonth=c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
        mDay=c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

Now add these two functions to call DatePicker Dialog and to set date in the Edittext

protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
        switch (id) {
        case DATE_DIALOG_ID:
            return new DatePickerDialog(this,
                        mDateSetListener,
                        mYear, mMonth, mDay);

        }

        return null;

    }
    private DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener mDateSetListener =new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {

        public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear,
                int dayOfMonth) {
            mYear = year;
            mMonth = monthOfYear;
            mDay = dayOfMonth;
            editText.setText(new StringBuilder().append(mDay).append("/").append(mMonth+1).append("/").append(mYear));

        }

    };

Define this globally:

    static final int DATE_DIALOG_ID = 0;
    private int mYear,mMonth,mDay;

This will help you to set date in the editText.Hope this will help you.
