The project I'm working on is slightly more complicated but I made this simple test to try to track down what was wrong with my code. The progress dialog never dismisses. I had it at one point where they weren't returning null. '
public class SyncTestActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
new mTask(this).execute();
}
public class mTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
Context mContext;
ProgressDialog progressDialog;
public mTask(Context aContext) {
mContext = aContext;
}
@Override
public void onPreExecute() {
progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(mContext);
progressDialog.setMessage("New...");
progressDialog.show();
}
@Override
public Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
return null;
}
public Void onPostExecute(Void... params) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
return null;
}
}
}
The parameters are wrong, use this:
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
return;
}
