    <p>I'm tried to display AlertDialog when an button in QuickAction is pressed.But my application crashes while trying to accomplish this task.I dont know what is causing the error.I also tried to use Thread.sleep to give time to QuickAction to dimiss properly and display AlertDialog but it didnt work.</p> <p>I did research and found one question: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4708098/starting-dialog-from-quickaction-button">Starting Dialog from QuickAction Button</a></p> <p>This question is somewhat similar to mine but when i tried to replace getApplicationContext() with the MyClass.class i get an error saying that constructor AlertDialog.builder(Class) is undefined.</p> <p>Following is the piece of code QuickAction and AlertDialog:</p> <pre><code>ActionItem editQItem = new ActionItem(ID_EDIT_Q, "Edit", getResources() .getDrawable(R.drawable.qa_edit)); ActionItem deleteQItem = new ActionItem(ID_DELETE_Q, "Delete", getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.qa_delete_answer)); System.out.println("Blah 1"); mQuickActionQ = new QuickAction(this); mQuickActionQ.addActionItem(editQItem); mQuickActionQ.addActionItem(deleteQItem); System.out.println("Blah 2"); // setup the action item click listener mQuickActionQ .setOnActionItemClickListener(new QuickAction.OnActionItemClickListener() { public void onItemClick(QuickAction quickAction, int pos, int actionId) { ActionItem actionItem = quickAction.getActionItem(pos); System.out.println("Blah 3"); if (actionId == ID_EDIT_Q) { //Here im getting error from here onwards when trying to display AlertDialog et_question = new EditText(getApplicationContext()); et_tag1 = new EditText(getApplicationContext()); et_tag2 = new EditText(getApplicationContext()); et_tag3 = new EditText(getApplicationContext()); et_question.setText(question); et_tag1.setText(q_tag1); et_tag2.setText(q_tag2); et_tag3.setText(q_tag3);

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
