How to create a date and time picker in Android? [closed]

Question

Is there any android widget that enable to pick the date and the time at the same time ? I already use the basic time picker and date picker.

But they are not that sexy and user friendly (I found). Do you know if a widget including both date and time exists?

Thanks a lot, Luc

Put both DatePicker and TimePicker in a layout XML.

date_time_picker.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout      xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:orientation="vertical"     android:layout_width="match_parent"     android:padding="8dp"     android:layout_height="match_parent">      <DatePicker         android:id="@+id/date_picker"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:calendarViewShown="true"         android:spinnersShown="false"         android:layout_weight="4"         android:layout_height="0dp" />      <TimePicker         android:id="@+id/time_picker"         android:layout_weight="4"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:layout_height="0dp" />      <Button         android:id="@+id/date_time_set"         android:layout_weight="1"         android:layout_width="match_parent"         android:text="Set"         android:layout_height="0dp" />  </LinearLayout> 

The code:

final View dialogView = View.inflate(activity, R.layout.date_time_picker, null); final AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(activity).create();  dialogView.findViewById(R.id.date_time_set).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {     @Override     public void onClick(View view) {           DatePicker datePicker = (DatePicker) dialogView.findViewById(R.id.date_picker);          TimePicker timePicker = (TimePicker) dialogView.findViewById(R.id.time_picker);           Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(datePicker.getYear(),                             datePicker.getMonth(),                             datePicker.getDayOfMonth(),                             timePicker.getCurrentHour(),                             timePicker.getCurrentMinute());           time = calendar.getTimeInMillis();          alertDialog.dismiss();     }}); alertDialog.setView(dialogView); alertDialog.show();

Use this function it will enable you to pic date and time one by one then set it to global variable date. No library no XML.

Calendar date; public void showDateTimePicker() {    final Calendar currentDate = Calendar.getInstance();    date = Calendar.getInstance();    new DatePickerDialog(context, new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {        @Override        public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {             date.set(year, monthOfYear, dayOfMonth);             new TimePickerDialog(context, new TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener() {                 @Override                 public void onTimeSet(TimePicker view, int hourOfDay, int minute) {                     date.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, hourOfDay);                     date.set(Calendar.MINUTE, minute);                     Log.v(TAG, "The choosen one " + date.getTime());                 }             }, currentDate.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY), currentDate.get(Calendar.MINUTE), false).show();        }    }, currentDate.get(Calendar.YEAR), currentDate.get(Calendar.MONTH), currentDate.get(Calendar.DATE)).show(); }
