Dialog problem: requestFeature() must be called before adding content

Question

I\'m creating a custom dialog containing an EditText so that I can get text data from the user:

final EditText newKey = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.dialog_r         


        

Answer 1

I've ran into this about a year ago and fixed it in a way using weird code. Again, an app I'm working on has a fragment that should display normally on phone, but in a dialogue on tablet. I solved it like this:

public class MyDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {
    private View mLayout;
    private ViewGroup mContainer;

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        mContainer = container;
        if (getShowsDialog()) {
            // one could return null here, or be nice and call super()
            return super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
        }
        return getLayout(inflater, container);
    }

    private View getLayout(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container) {
        mLayout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.my_layout, container, false);
        return mLayout;
    }

    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        return new AlertDialog.Builder(getContext())
                .setPositiveButton(R.string.ok, null)
                .setNegativeButton(R.string.cancel, null)
                .setNeutralButton(R.string.filter_clear_selection, null)
                .setView(getLayout(LayoutInflater.from(getContext()), mContainer))
                .create()
            ;
    }
}

This allows me to add my fragment as any normal fragment (in a layout), but also display it as a dialog where it runs autonomously.
