Android android.view.windowmanager$badtokenexception progressdialog

I try to use progressDialog in Button click ,but I have android.view.windowmanager$badtokenexception error. This is my code:

starus_fail.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {

            dialog = ProgressDialog.show(getApplicationContext(),
                    "Please Wait... ", "Loading... ");
            dialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_SPINNER);

            Handler handler = new Handler();
            handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                public void run() {

                    somefunction();
                    if (dialog != null) {
                        dialog.dismiss();
                    }
                }

            }, 1000);

        }
    });

Just to have an answer for the above, ProgressDialog uses a context of the Activity calling it.

So just pass

 YourActivity.this

Instead of 

getApplicationContext

See www.doubleencore.in/2013/06/context/ for more detailed understanding of contextual

Do not use application context for create dialog. Instead use Activity context. Here you can get it from View.getContext(). so replace your create of PorgressDialog to this:

dialog = ProgressDialog.show(arg0.getContext(), "Please Wait... ", "Loading... ");
