I have made a Util class to open and close progress dialog like this
Utils.java
public class Utils {
private static Utils util;
private Typeface typeface;
private ProgressDialog progressDialog;
public static Utils getInstance(){
if(util == null){
util = new Utils();
}
return util;
}
public void showProgressDialog(Activity activity){
if(progressDialog != null && progressDialog.isShowing()){
return;
}
if(progressDialog == null ) {
progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(activity);
}
progressDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
progressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_SPINNER);
progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
progressDialog.show();
}
public void closeProgressDialog(){
try {
if (progressDialog != null && progressDialog.isShowing()) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
progressDialog = null;
}
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
and then i call showProgressDialog before loading data and closeProgressDialog after data has been loaded. like this
Acvitity code
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_dashboard,container,false);
activity = getActivity();
ButterKnife.bind(this,view);
init();
return view;
}
private void init() {
Utils.getInstance().showProgressDialog(activity);
getPatientsList();
//in response i am calling closeProgressDialog();
}
public void onPatientListResponse(String response){
Utils.getInstance().closeProgressDialog(); // raises exception here
}
but it raises exception in closeProgressDialog();
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: View=com.android.internal.policy.PhoneWindow$DecorView{f7fd12e V.E...... R......D 0,0-1024,232} not attached to window manager
Try this,
Anyway u r checking whether the progressDialog is already showing if yes u r just returning the control. Rather than that dismiss the progressDialog and create a new instance. Because old progressDialog may started with different context.
public void showProgressDialog(Activity activity){
if(progressDialog != null && progressDialog.isShowing()){
progressDialog.dismiss();
progressDialog = null;
}
if(progressDialog == null ) {
progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(activity);
}
progressDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
progressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_SPINNER);
progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
if(!activity.isFinishing())
progressDialog.show();
}
