Dialog throwing "Unable to add window — token null is not for an application” with getApplication() as context

Question

My Activity is trying to create an AlertDialog which requires a Context as a parameter. This works as expected if I use:

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new Al         


        

Answer 1

Or another possibility is to create Dialog as follow:

final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(new ContextThemeWrapper(
            this, R.style.MyThemeDialog));
