copied!<p>You should regroup the code that builds the <code>Dialog</code> in a helper class.<br /> Below is an excerpt of a <code>DialogHelper</code> I have built for myself and that I use to show my applications' help files.</p> <pre><code>public class DialogHelper { public static AlertDialog showHelp(final Context ctx, final int resTitle, final int resFilename, final int resOk, final int resViewOnline, final int resOnlineUrl) { final WebView webview = new WebView(ctx); webview.loadUrl(ctx.getString(resFilename)); AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(ctx); builder.setTitle(resTitle) .setView(webview) .setCancelable(false) .setPositiveButton(resOk, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) { dialog.dismiss(); } }) .setNegativeButton(resViewOnline, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) { final Uri uri = Uri.parse(ctx.getString(resOnlineUrl)); final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri); ctx.startActivity(intent); } } ); final AlertDialog dlg = builder.create(); dlg.show(); return dlg; } } ... other kinds of dialog take place here ... } </code></pre> <p>This way I just call </p> <pre><code>DialogHelper.showHelp(context, R.string.helpTitle, R.string.localizedFilename, R.string.labelOk, R.string.labelViewOnlineHelp, R.string.onlineHelpUrl); </code></pre> <p>from all my applications. That's a lot of parameters but this is workable.</p> <p>There is a non-nice thing in that code: I use <code>setNegativeButton()</code> for something else than its intended purpose. This is something I should refactor, but this doesn't change anything in the approach.</p> <p>About the parameters of <code>showHelp()</code>: they are <code>final</code> as they are used in the anonymous classes built within the method. This is a requirement of the compiler.</p>
