Question

@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
    switch (id) {
        case IDD_COLOR:
            return new AlertDialog(this); // The constructor AlertDialog(context) is not visible
    }

    return null;
}

Why? What’s wrong?

Answer 1

The constructor AlertDialog(Context context) is protected, and is only visible to its class, sub-classes and classes within the same package.
