[android-developers] Re: Confirmation routine

a simple approach is to use the AlertDialog as

AlertDialog.Builder bldr = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
bldr.setTitle("confirm") ;
bldr.setMessage("place bid ?") ;
bldr.setPositiveButton(R.string.yes, new
DialogInterface.OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
///code for YES
}
});

bldr.setNegativeButton(R.string.no, new
DialogInterface.OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// code for NO
}
});

bldr.show();

what was the reason you didnt like that approach ?
