Question

When I searched about toast in stackoverflow I have found many things which were related to my problem.However none of them solved my problem. In my android app I am supposed to show many toasts after eachother.However when I try to do so, next toast waits for the current toast to finish. Even if I used cancel for toast , it seems to me it never works.Please offer me a exact solution.Thank you..

inflater = getLayoutInflater();
    backgForToast=(ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.toast_layout_root);
    layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.toastbackground,backgForToast);
    textForToast = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.text);

    textForToast.setText(toastMessage);
    toast.setGravity(Gravity.TOP|Gravity.LEFT, toastX2-90,toastY2-90);
    toast.setView(layout);
    toast.show();

    Handler handler = new Handler();
    long delay = 500;

    handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            toast.cancel();
        }
    }, delay);

You need to create a Toast object with Toast.makeText before you can cancel() it.
