Adding AlertDialog With SetSingleChoiceItems in Android

In this article we'll learn how to add the alert dialog with setSingleChoiceitems in Android. Let's start with the following procedure.

1. Start Eclipse IDE.

2. Create a new project.

3. Create a MainActivity.java file.

4. Create an activity_main.xml file for layout design.

5. Add a Textview field in XML layout.

6. Then declare a string array in the MainActivity class like this:

    String[] str={"mp3","Mpeg","wmv","3gp"};

7. Create an object like this: AlertDialog.Builder aa=new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

8. With this object add setSingleChoiceItems.

The following is the code.

MainActivity.java

package com.example.alertdialogsetsinglechoice;

 

import android.app.Activity;

import android.app.AlertDialog;

import android.content.DialogInterface;

import android.content.DialogInterface.OnClickListener;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.widget.Toast;

 

public class MainActivity extends Activity 

{

   String[] str={"mp3","Mpeg","wmv","3gp"};

   @Override

   protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 

   {

      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

      setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

      ffff();

   }

 

   //setsinglechoice

   public void ffff()

   {

      AlertDialog.Builder aa=new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

      aa.setTitle("Choose any one extension type");

      aa.setSingleChoiceItems(str, 2, new OnClickListener() 

      {

         public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) 

         {

            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

            switch (which)

            {

               case 1:

                  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Hello Abhi, Its mpeg", 100).show();

                  break;

               case 2:

                  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Hello Guyzz ", 100).show();

                  break;

               case 3:

                  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Hello Guyzz ", 100).show();

                  break;

               case 4:

                  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Hello Guyzz ", 100).show();

                  break;

               default:

                  break;

               }

            }

         });

         aa.show();

       }

}

 

activity_main.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"

    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"

    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"

    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"

    tools:context=".MainActivity" >

    <TextView

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:text="@string/hello_world" />

</RelativeLayout>
