Android simple alert dialog [duplicate]

I need to show a little text message to the users that clicks a button on my Android app, on IOS I just had to create an AlertView that it's simple to use but with Android i'm struggling because the solution seems x10 times harder. I saw that I need to use a DialogFragment but I can't understand how to make it work, can someone explain? Also, is my solution right or there is something easier to show a simple text message to users?

Solution 1:

You would simply need to do this in your onClick:

AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this).create();
alertDialog.setTitle("Alert");
alertDialog.setMessage("Alert message to be shown");
alertDialog.setButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_NEUTRAL, "OK",
    new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            dialog.dismiss();
        }
    });
alertDialog.show();

I don't know from where you saw that you need DialogFragment for simply showing an alert.

Solution 2:

No my friend its very simple, try using this:

AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(AlertDialogActivity.this).create();
alertDialog.setTitle("Alert Dialog");
alertDialog.setMessage("Welcome to dear user.");
alertDialog.setIcon(R.drawable.welcome);

alertDialog.setButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_POSITIVE, "OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "You clicked on OK", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
});

alertDialog.show();

This tutorial shows how you can create custom dialog using xml and then show them as an alert dialog.
