Question

I was trying to make a DialogFragment that could be dismissed when tapped, after some search i decided to go with this implementation:

public class ErrorDialogFragment extends RoboDialogFragment {

private static final String MESSAGE_ARG = "message";
private TextView text;

public ErrorDialogFragment newInstance (String message){
    ErrorDialogFragment f = new ErrorDialogFragment();

        Bundle args = new Bundle();
        args.putString(MESSAGE_ARG, message);
        f.setArguments(args);

        return f;
}

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {     
    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.error_dialog_fragment, container, false);
    v.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            ErrorDialogFragment.this.dismiss();
        }
    });

    text = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.error_dialog_text_textView);
    text.setText(getArguments().getString(MESSAGE_ARG));
    return v;
}

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setStyle(DialogFragment.STYLE_NO_TITLE, 0);
}

The alert dialog can have a custom message and will be dismissed when tapped.

Do you think is a better way to achieve this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You can use dialog.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(true); which will close the dialog if you touch outside the dialog. or
