Question

showDialog( DIALOG_CREATEPC ); // called elsewhere

private Dialog addPCDialog()
{
   final Dialog dialog = new Dialog( this );

   dialog.setContentView( R.layout.party_createpc );
   dialog.setTitle( "Add PC" );
   ...
   return dialog
}

@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog( int id )
{       
    Dialog dialog;
        switch( id )
        {
            case DIALOG_CREATEPC:
                dialog = addPCDialog();
                break;
            default:
                dialog = null;
        }
        return dialog;
    }

Am I missing something here? The dialog just doesn’t show at all.

Answer 1

try overriding onPrepareDialog instead of onCreateDialog
