Alerts
Alerts provide a quick message to the user outside of the application’s main UI. It can be in an overlay window such as a Toast or AlertDialog box. It can also be in the notification bar at the top of the screen.The Toast alert provides a printed message to the screen with a single line of code.There is no need to work with the layout files. For this reason, it is also a handy debug tool, equivalent to the printf statement in C programs.
Using Toast to Show a Brief Message on the Screen
The Toast method has been introduced in the previous chapter in a compact form:
Toast.makeText(this, "text", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
It can also be written as a multiline command:
Toast tst = Toast.makeText(this, "text", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
tst.show();
