And here is a portion of the code:

mPickDate = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.pickDate);
  mPickDate.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
         showDialog(DATE_DIALOG_ID);
        }
    });

@Override
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
 switch (id) {
 case DATE_DIALOG_ID:
     return new DatePickerDialog(this,
                 mDateSetListener,
                 mYear, mMonth, mDay);
 case DATE_DIALOG_ID_RETURN:
     return new DatePickerDialog(this,
       mDateSetListenerreturn,
                 mYear, mMonth, mDay);     
 }
 return null;
}

 // updates the date in the TextView
    private void updateDisplay(TextView mDateDisplay) {
    mDateDisplay.setText(
        new StringBuilder()
                // Month is 0 based so add 1
               .append(mDay).append("-")
               .append(mMonth + 1).append("-")
               .append(mYear).append("")


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

        public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, 
                              int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
            mYear = year;
            mMonth = monthOfYear;
            mDay = dayOfMonth;
            updateDisplay(mDateDisplay);
        }
    };

…

I changed the ‘this’ with ‘getParent()’ at onCreateDialog() but nothing happened
Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Your error is on line 63 of DialogManager.java. Without seeing the code, I cannot be any more specific, but it looks as though there is a problem with one of your arguments to showDialog().

You have overridden the onCreateDialog() method as described here, and, if so, create a dialog box when given id = 2, haven’t you?
