Show a ProgressDialog inside a Fragment that is injected in a Tab

Vimalsoft Pty Ltd

Good Day Everyone I have a Code that saves data and send an email after that. want to show Progress Dialog when this is happening. This code is in a Fragment that is shown in a Tab. below is my code in my Activity this works nicely. i have a challenge in making this to work in a Fragment

btn_contact_save.Click += (sender, e) =>
{
var progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(Context);
progressDialog.SetTitle("Saving...");
progressDialog.Indeterminate = true;
progressDialog.Show();
progressDialog.SetCancelable(false);

             btn\_details\_save\_Click(view);

            progressDialog.Dismiss();

        };

Thanks

And that challenge would be what exactly?

Where is the context coming from? Is an exception being thrown?

hi There is no Exception , the Context is the Application Context (Context.Android.Support.V4.App.Fragment.Context) , i also tried to declare the context at a fragment level and initialize it on OnCreateView (Android.Content.Context) but still it does not show the dialog. Please note this dialog shows nicely in an Activity not a Fragment. Thanks

You know this, even without a try/catch block?

Have you tried using getActivity() when constructing the ProgressDialog?

Which means nothing. While a fragment runs within an activity, that does not mean they are interchangeable.

You know this, even without a try/catch block? i stepped through and no exception was raised. Have you tried using getActivity() when constructing the ProgressDialog? let me try that and i will get back to you.
