Adding Edittext To Alert Dialog.

I have the following code that create alert dialog and I added two edit text to it but once I run the app the values within the EditText won't be retrived and my app crash with Nul

Solution 1:

Thanks guys for your contributions in answering my question, and I think I got the solution for the problem that I posted above which is:

AlertDialog.Builderalert=newAlertDialog.Builder(MyFeedActivity.this);
        LayoutInflater inflater=MyFeedActivity.this.getLayoutInflater();
        //this is what I did to added the layout to the alert dialog
        View layout=inflater.inflate(R.layout.dialog,null);       
        alert.setView(layout);
        final EditText usernameInput=(EditText)layout.findViewById(R.id.dialogusername);
        final EditText passwordInput=(EditText)layout.findViewById(R.id.dialogpassword);

and I think the problem was that I cannot get the EidtText within the alert dialog, but by doing it by the above code every thing works just fine with me.

Solution 2:

use this:

finalAlertDialogalertDialog=newAlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
    finalEditTextinput=newEditText(this);
    input.setHint("hint");
    alertDialog.setTitle("title");
    alertDialog.setMessage(message);
    alertDialog.setView(input);

Solution 3:

Try editing like this

final EditText usernameInput=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.dialogusername);
final EditText passwordInput=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.dialogpassword);

OR

final EditText usernameInput=(EditText)alert.findViewById(R.id.dialogusername);
final EditText passwordInput=(EditText)alert.findViewById(R.id.dialogpassword);
