WindowManager$BadTokenException

今天在google play上收集到一个程序异常的信息

在线程里弹出dialog的时候 

 new AlertDialog.Builder(
                                                    MailSettingAccountRecieveActivity.this)
                                                    .setTitle(
                                                            getString(R.string.check_failed_title))
                                                    .setMessage(errMessage)
                                                    .setPositiveButton(getString(R.string.ok), null)
                                                    .show();
                                            
                                        }
                                    });

stackflow 上的解释是

The problem is that the dialog need to have the "base" context of your activity, not necessarily the one you're launching it from.

然后我在弹dialog之前加上了这段代码

Activity activity = MailSettingAccountRecieveActivity.this;
                                            while (activity.getParent() != null) {
                                                activity = activity.getParent();
                                            }
                                            new AlertDialog.Builder(activity)
                                                    .setTitle(
                                                            getString(R.string.check_failed_title))
                                                    .setMessage(errMessage)
                                                    .setPositiveButton(
                                                            getString(R.string.ok),
                                                            null).show();
                                            
                                        }
                                    });
