Android - showDialog method, problems with default case in switch statement

Question

I'm programming some custom dialogs and I've run into some trouble with the showDialog method. For some reason, when I pass the id of the Dialog I want to create to the showDialog method, it executes both the intended case and the default case.

protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
    switch (id) {
    case DATE_DIALOG_ID:

        Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
        mYear = c.get(c.YEAR);
        mMonth = c.get(c.MONTH);
        mDay = c.get(c.DAY_OF_MONTH);

        return new DatePickerDialog(this,
                    mDateSetListener,
                    mYear, mMonth, mDay);
    default:
        return null;
    }
}

Answer 1

updated your code with following code,

DatePickerDialog dpd = null;

protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
    switch (id) {
    case DATE_DIALOG_ID:

        Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
        mYear = c.get(c.YEAR);
        mMonth = c.get(c.MONTH);
        mDay = c.get(c.DAY_OF_MONTH);

        dpd =  new DatePickerDialog(this, mDateSetListener, mYear, mMonth, mDay);
    break;     // you forgot this line in your code
    default:
        return null;
    }
}
