How to dismiss AlertDialog in android

Question

I created AlertDialog that contains 4 buttons

OptionDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
        OptionDialog.setTitle("Options");
        LayoutInflater li = (LayoutInflater) this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View v = li.inflate(R.layout.options, null, false);
        background = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.bkgSpinnerLabel);
        SoundVib = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.SoundVibSpinnerLabel);

        OptionDialog.setView(v);
        OptionDialog.setCancelable(true);
        OptionDialog.setNeutralButton("Ok",
                new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

                    public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1) {
                    }
                });
        background.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
                SetBackground();
             // here I want to dismiss it after SetBackground() method 
            }
        });


        SoundVib.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent soundVibIntent = new Intent(SebhaActivity.this, EditPreferences.class);
                startActivity(soundVibIntent);
            }
        });

        OptionDialog.show();

I want to dismiss it after SetBackground() method, how can I do this? thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Actually there is no any cancel() or dismiss() method from AlertDialog.Builder Class.

So Instead of AlertDialog.Builder optionDialog use AlertDialog instance.

Like,

AlertDialog optionDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create(); 

Now, Just call optionDialog.dismiss();

background.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {     public void onClick(View v) {         SetBackground();         // here I want to dismiss it after SetBackground() method          optionDialog.dismiss();     } });

I think there's a simpler solution: Just use the DialogInterface argument that is passed to the onClick method.

AlertDialog.Builder db = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);         db.setNegativeButton("cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener(){             @Override             public void onClick(DialogInterface d, int arg1) {                 db.cancel();                 //here db.cancel will dismiss the builder              };           }); 

See, for example, http://www.mkyong.com/android/android-alert-dialog-example.

Try this:

   AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
   AlertDialog OptionDialog = builder.create();
  background.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            SetBackground();
       OptionDialog .dismiss();
        }
    });
