Show Dialog from Fragment

Show dialog from fragment?

You should use a DialogFragment instead.

Calling DialogFragment from Fragment (not FragmentActivity)?

When you create a new Dialog, you can simply call it using this (very) simple method from a Fragment.

DialogFragment dialog = DialogFragment.instantiate(getActivity(), "Hello world");
dialog.show(getFragmentManager(), "dialog");

If you want to use your own dialog, please use that kind of code.

public class MyDialogFragment extends DialogFragment
{
    //private View pic;

    public MyDialogFragment()
    {
    }

    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        View view = getActivity().getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.fragment_my_dialog, new LinearLayout(getActivity()), false);

        // Retrieve layout elements
        TextView title = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.text_title);

        // Set values
        title.setText("Not perfect yet");

        // Build dialog
        Dialog builder = new Dialog(getActivity());
        builder.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        builder.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(android.graphics.Color.TRANSPARENT));
        builder.setContentView(view);
        return builder;
    }
}

Callback to a Fragment from a DialogFragment

Activity involved is completely unaware of the DialogFragment.

Fragment class:

public class MyFragment extends Fragment {
int mStackLevel = 0;
public static final int DIALOG_FRAGMENT = 1;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    if (savedInstanceState != null) {
        mStackLevel = savedInstanceState.getInt("level");
    }
}

@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
    super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
    outState.putInt("level", mStackLevel);
}

void showDialog(int type) {

    mStackLevel++;

    FragmentTransaction ft = getActivity().getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
    Fragment prev = getActivity().getFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag("dialog");
    if (prev != null) {
        ft.remove(prev);
    }
    ft.addToBackStack(null);

    switch (type) {

        case DIALOG_FRAGMENT:

            DialogFragment dialogFrag = MyDialogFragment.newInstance(123);
            dialogFrag.setTargetFragment(this, DIALOG_FRAGMENT);
            dialogFrag.show(getFragmentManager().beginTransaction(), "dialog");

            break;
    }
}

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        switch(requestCode) {
            case DIALOG_FRAGMENT:

                if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
                    // After Ok code.
                } else if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED){
                    // After Cancel code.
                }

                break;
        }
    }
}

}

DialogFragment class:

public class MyDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {

public static MyDialogFragment newInstance(int num){

    MyDialogFragment dialogFragment = new MyDialogFragment();
    Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
    bundle.putInt("num", num);
    dialogFragment.setArguments(bundle);

    return dialogFragment;

}

@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    return new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity())
            .setTitle(R.string.ERROR)
            .setIcon(android.R.drawable.ic_dialog_alert)
            .setPositiveButton(R.string.ok_button,
                    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
                            getTargetFragment().onActivityResult(getTargetRequestCode(), Activity.RESULT_OK, getActivity().getIntent());
                        }
                    }
            )
            .setNegativeButton(R.string.cancel_button, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
                    getTargetFragment().onActivityResult(getTargetRequestCode(), Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, getActivity().getIntent());
                }
            })
            .create();
}
}

How to display AlertDialog in a Fragment?

Replace context with getActivity().

The ApplicationContext should not be used for tasks such as creating Dialogs. As you are in a fragment you can instead get the Activity-Context simply by calling the Fragments getActivity() method.
