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

Guys I got a simple cheat sheet. create a file give it any name then in it write this code

fun Context.alertdialog(context: Context, msg: String, icon: Drawable, title:String){
    val alertDialog = AlertDialog.Builder(context)
    alertDialog.setIcon(icon)
        .setTitle(title)
        .setMessage(msg)
    alertDialog.show()
}

now when you need to show an alert dialog only use this method anywhere

requireActivity().alertdialog(requireContext(), resources.getString(R.string.pass_title),
                resources.getDrawable(R.drawable.pass_ic_name), "title")

Goodluck for Kotlin
