method returns AppCompatActivity in a Fragment

Question

I am trying to implement an AlertView library from GitHub in a fragment and the show() method returns AppCompatActivity so basically is must be like so : show(this); but since I'm in a fragment I cannot do that, I tried :

• getActivity();
• returning a context
• ...etc

but nothing worked.

So my question is how to return AppCompatActivity while I'm inside a fragment

P.S. I tried to read the documentation but found nothing

Answer 1

Try this

alertView.show((AppCompatActivity)getActivity());
