EditText input type not changing

I am showing a dialog with edit text and set the input type decimal like this 

**final EditText input = new EditText(context);

input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NUMBER_FLAG_DECIMAL);**

It's input type working fine if I am using default alert.setPositiveButton and setNegativeButton click listeners. But when I used the

dialog.getButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_POSITIVE).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { }

then it's input not working. Below is my code complete code

package com.Dialogs;


public class GetSalesTaxPopUp {
    Context context;
    private AlertDialog dialog;
    public void getSalesTax(Context context2){
        this.context = context2;
        AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);

        alert.setTitle("Sales Tax");
        alert.setMessage("Enter Tax");

        // Set an EditText view to get user input 
        final EditText input = new EditText(context);
        input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NUMBER_FLAG_DECIMAL);
        alert.setView(input);
        alert.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {

            }
        });
        alert.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {

            }
        });
        dialog = alert.create();
        dialog.show();
        dialog.getButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_POSITIVE).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                String salestax = input.getText().toString();
                if(!salestax.equals("")){
                    Toast.makeText(context, salestax, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        }
                else{
                    Toast.makeText(context, "Enter Sales Tax", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }
            }
        });
        dialog.getButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_NEGATIVE).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (!MyPreferences.getMyPreference("GetSalesTax", context).equals("")){
                    dialog.dismiss();
                }
                else
                    Toast.makeText(context, "Enter Sales Tax First", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });


    //  alert.show();
    }
}

Please guide me where I am doing something wrong. Any help is appreciated.

You need both the input type class and the decimal flag:

input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | InputType.TYPE_NUMBER_FLAG_DECIMAL);

I think you need to call dialog.show(); at the very last.

Other than that, i would suggest you to use:

alert.setPositiveButton instead of dialog.getButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_POSITIVE)
