-1















Why can't i create a popup dialog inside of my fab.setOnClickListener(View in the onCreatemethod?



Is it due to thesyntax? Am i missing expressions?
Is my code outdated as my instructor is a old udemy course?



 public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity 

private AlertDialog.Builder dialogBuilder;
private AlertDialog dialog;
private EditText groceryItem;
private EditText getGroceryItem;
private EditText quantity;
private Button saveButton;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);

FloatingActionButton fab = findViewById(R.id.fab);
// === error appears on the next line ===
fab.setOnClickListener(View,

createPopupDialog());



@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;


@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item)
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();

//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings)
return true;


return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);



private void createPopupDialog()

dialogBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
View view = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.popup, null);
groceryItem = view.findViewById(R.id.groceryItem);
quantity = view.findViewById(groceryQty);
saveButton = view.findViewById(R.id.saveButton);

dialogBuilder.setView(view);
dialog = dialogBuilder.create();
dialog.show();

I think you wanted to use lambda expression. If this is the case, this is the correct syntax:



fab.setOnClickListener((View v) -> 
createPopupDialog();
);

You are not passing the right arguments in setOnClickListener().

Create the listener like this:



fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() 
@Override
public void onClick(View v)
createPopupDialog();

);
