[Android.Runtime.Register("showDialog", "(ILandroid/os/Bundle;)Z", "")]
[System.Obsolete("deprecated")]
public bool ShowDialog(int id, Android.OS.Bundle? args);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("showDialog", "(ILandroid/os/Bundle;)Z", "")>]
[<System.Obsolete("deprecated")>]
member this.ShowDialog : int * Android.OS.Bundle -> bool

Parameters

id: Int32

The id of the managed dialog.

args: Bundle

Arguments to pass through to the dialog. These will be saved and restored for you. Note that if the dialog is already created, #onCreateDialog(int, Bundle) will not be called with the new arguments but #onPrepareDialog(int, Dialog, Bundle) will be. If you need to rebuild the dialog, call #removeDialog(int) first.

Returns

Boolean

Returns true if the Dialog was created; false is returned if it is not created because #onCreateDialog(int, Bundle) returns false.

Attributes: RegisterAttribute ObsoleteAttribute

Remarks

This method was deprecated in API level 15. Use the new DialogFragment class with FragmentManager instead; this is also available on older platforms through the Android compatibility package.

Show a dialog managed by this activity. A call to onCreateDialog(int,Bundle) will be made with the same id the first time this is called for a given id. From thereafter, the dialog will be automatically saved and restored. If you are targeting Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB or later, consider instead using a DialogFragment instead. Each time a dialog is shown, onPrepareDialog(int,Dialog,Bundle) will be made to provide an opportunity to do any timely preparation.
