18,106 PointsHi
It looks as if your getting a little tangled with returning your AlertDialog. You still have the return null statement in your code so when the code executes this the method stops and returns (in your case with the null value) hwat we want to do is replace this return null with the AlertDialog you have created.
By using the method .create() off of the AlertDialog.Builder Class you can return an AlertDialog object and store this in a variable (I know these .Builder examples can get a little confusing but they do pop up in a few places), this is what you should then return, the full code examples to pass all 4 challenges are below (or have a rethink and try for yourself if you'd like).
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class AlertDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {
@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Context context = getActivity();
// Insert code here!
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
builder.setTitle("Sorry!");
builder.setMessage("Try again!");
builder.setPositiveButton("OK",null);
AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();
return dialog;
}
}
and the activity code
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import java.io.IOException;
public class MovieActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
// Get some movie information!
String apiUrl = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies.json?apikey=xyz&q=hobbit";
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder()
.url(apiUrl)
.build();
Call call = client.newCall(request);
call.enqueue(new Callback() {
@Override
public void onFailure(Request request, IOException e) {
DialogFragment newFragment = AlertDialogFragment.newInstance();
newFragment.show(getFragmentManager(), "error_dialog");
}
@Override
public void onResponse(Response response) throws IOException { }
});
}
}
Hope this helps
Daniel

18,106 Pointsthe code in the bottom block will get you through challenge 4, I passed it myself using this code. You should be able to simply copy and paste
