Question

My android app crashes after i build (create) my costum AlertDialog. How i creating AlertDialog:

            AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
            View view_ = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.dictionary_popup_main, null);
            builder.setView(view_);
            builder.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                    // sign in the user ...
                }
            });
            builder.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {

                }
            });
            AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();
            dialog.show();

Please, help me, i'm tryed to search any answers for my errors, but a lot of people write "this" in a first line (while creating AlertDialog), and i don't found any people with this.

Thanks.

Could you please share R.layout.dictionary_popup_main file content? The error seems to be in DrawerLayout code. — Pritesh Patel, Oct 11 '17 at 16:59
The context is wrong where are you using it, in activity or fragment try get activity() or get context() — Aniruddha K.M, Oct 11 '17 at 17:00

No matter, i already found a answer: just need to make code like this:

        View view_ = (View)findViewById(R.id.dictl_l);
        AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
        builder.setMessage(getResources().getString(R.string.l_word) + main)
                .setView(someLayout);
        AlertDialog dlg = builder.create();
        dlg.show();

Application crashes on building AlertDialog
