Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that there is an error in this lesson. Using completely correct syntax

builder.setTItle( R.string.dialog_title ); ///Your code

A resource ID is an integer. You need to return a String. The resource id doesn't instantiate an object of String at runtime. You have to do that.

builder.setTItle( this.getString( R.string.dialog_title ) ); //Correct code

Yeah, I learned that in the next lesson. Thanks.

Unfortunately, this.getString() is nowhere to be found in the pertinent lesson.

Also, interestingly enough, my original code works as is on my system....I see that's because there are two different AlertDialog.Builder.setMessage() signatures...one does indeed take a resource ID int. So the issue is really with the Treehouse compiler, and my code is still correct, just not for their compiler. Just a heads up.

Right on as long as you got it

Can we close this question? I think it has been answered because the original poster has acknowledged that the solution provided was able to fix his problem but doesn't like the fact that an alternative method for solving it was not accepted by the TreeHouse code challenge parser.

Hi Ben Jakuben !Can you check if there is any compiler problem in this task? thank you :)
