Question

In my activity, I show a dialog under some condition like this:

public void showADialog(String title, String msg) {
    if (mIsActivityRunning) {
        new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
        .show();
    }
} 

My question is what do I need to do to ensure there is no resource leak? From the logcat, i see there is a case where it said a window is leaking or something like that.

Answer 1

When the dialog box closes, how are you dismissing it? If you are using the hide() method, this won’t actually dismiss the dialog.

EDIT: You need to dispose of the dialog box as the Activity is disposed of – see this question for more details
