AlertDialog not accepting dismiss code

I have a very small problem and which probably going to be easy for somebody with better knowledge than me but I have a problem with my alertDialog and the issue that when I write the code for the dialog to be dismiss under the set button method. It gives me an syntax error and I have trying to figure out why for hours and I cant get around this simple problem. Can somebody assist me with this issue.

final AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

alertDialog.setTitle("ApplicationTitle");
alertDialog.setMessage("1st line" + "2nd line");
alertDialog.setMessage("1st line" + "2nd line");                     

alertDialog.setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
        alertDialog.dismiss();
    }
 });
alertDialog.show();

this is the line of code I am talking about alertDialog.dismiss();

You almost got it. Just use dialog.cancel(); instead of alertDialog.dismiss();. EDIT

You wanted the text to be in different lines. Why don't you try this and tell me if it works:

 StringBuilder build = new StringBuilder();
    build.append("1st line")
    .append("\n")
    .append("2nd line")
    .append("\n")
    .append("3rd line");

    final AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

    alertDialog.setTitle("ApplicationTitle");

    alertDialog.setMessage(build.toString());     


    alertDialog.setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            dialog.cancel();
        }
     });
    alertDialog.show();
